Eric Winning or Glousestershire kindly donated these super cameras and some amazing images of Singapore from the 1950s...
Eric says "The Contaflex was my pride and joy for many years! I bought it at Changi Singapore in 1954 and it proved to be a great camera until it died about 15 years ago" He shot mainly with Anscochrome film that has faded and given such great colours.
Eric was a glider pilot for 40 years and bought the Vivitar for general aerial shots... I look forward to seeing some of these too! (images to be added soon)
Many thanks to Eric for contacting me and for sending his beloved cameras to join my collection.
