RE: Photo question...
Completely batteryless, 1.8 4.5 cm lens, 1/500 sec, totally manual. Still my favorite camera, but seldom use it due to the fact it has no telephoto capability. It's now over 50 years old.
Maybe Vinnie can stop back and tell us a little more about his picture.

I don't dabble much but I can tell you that in 1966 you didn't see conduit coming down from power lines and buried to go to homes, such as the one in the back ground. Nope, power lines were run from the power pole to your home or to a pole next to your home, there was no such thing as direct burial power cable. The transformers don't even come from that era. Sorry.

Well, here's a thought. See the very modern looking grey transformers on the pole in the background? I don't remember those as a kid.
