I went to see a man in Yoxford about ten years ago,(his Elizabethan house is illustrated in the Suffolk Shell Guide). He told me that he had worked with Kuhn. He had an unopened Sinclair bromoil transfer press on his darkroom floor. Russ Young mentions him in his thesis on soft focus lenses.
Hi Captian Kirk! Long time no see. Great work you're producing on the Autotype press. I envy you owning this fantastic piece of photographic history. I have sought after and hunted for a Sinclair Transfer Press to no avail. Wish I could join you at Eurobrom! Best regards, Gene
