The monochrome shot would probably have been taken on a Pentax 6 x 7cm roll film camera. These cameras were replacing the 5" x 4" plate cameras used by Turners professional photographers at the time. Although I was employed by Turners Photography this was never as a photographer (except as a relief in their portrait studio), but I was allowed to "borrow" one of the much rated Pentax cameras at weekends
