Roli Cord Camera

"This is the camera my father, Richard (Kevin) Nevin, used when he was a semi-professional wedding photographer in the 1950s through to the 1980s. He lived and worked around Bray, Co. Wicklow and often was asked to photograph weddings of children whose parents' weddings he had photographed years earlier! Weddings were 'Black and White' then. He bought it second hand and it was the only camera he used until he retired after 30 years. There is a 12 roll of film in the camera. He wouldn’t have been allowed to take photos in church at the time so images were of a group outside church and the register signature. "
