I wonder what photos were taken using what we now know as the Yoda Lightsaber?Īnyway…the box arrived and there were several of the desired flashguns and their accessories. It seems that he was a VERY famous photographer and had taken some VERY important photos of actors and political figures during his career. He even sent me a newspaper article (which I still have but need to find) that a local newspaper had written about him. We kept in touch for some afterwards and he did obtain a few more for me. He told me that he often frequented camera shows and would let me know if he ran across more of them. I also told him that I was interested in more of the either the Graflex or Heiland flashguns.

I got the call later that evening and we settled on a price and I mailed off a check for the box.

Unknown to me was that a good friend of mine had also called after I did but the lady told him that they were already spoken for. I politely asked he call me and left my phone number with his wife. The person who answered the phone was the wife of the seller who stated that he wasn’t home but would let him know when he returned. I called the phone number and asked how many were in the box and expressed my desire to purchase them. The seller listed several models that were in the box including a few Graflex and Heiland flashguns.

Several years ago when hunting down Graflex flashguns to convert to Lightsabers I ran across an ad in a “Camera Shop” newspaper that was offering a box of various flashguns.
