Preface
Research for this History
This book was researched and written over a period of six months in the intervals between earning a living as an Architect and producing photographs for Exhibitions, and would not have been achieved without editorial assistance from Prue Lightfoot.
It is dedicated to the past and present members of the Croydon Camera Club who, by their individual contributions and personal idiosyncracies, have made it the rich and revered Club of which I am proud to be a Life Member.
