    Imagine Fred Picker and Ron Wisner working together. Together, they could have been the world wide leaders in the LF photo industry.

    Some years after the Calumet sale, I went looking for a Zone VI. because of all the problems I had seen on friends gold plated ZVIs I sought one out in brass. IMO brass ages beautifully and appropriately for a VC.
    Thanks,

    I have a Zone VI 8x10 -- I guess it is gold plated...not really sure (made in Vermont, #270) No longer 'pretty', but fully functional -- that what counts to me.
