Hi all!
I'm John, a new and very excited member to the group. I am a real novice to the art of photography but it has been something simmering in the back of my mind for some time now and definitely something I would like to fine-tune. I have a few professional photographers who are friends of mine so together hopefully I can go to the next step!!
The long shot:
A friend of mine really wants to find an analogue fot-o-mat machine (by that I mean the machines that snap your passport pictures that were in every supermarket and communal space back in the 80's/90's; the ones that flash and produce 4 different pictures on a strip of film). I thought I'd mention it to you since I guess you guys are experts in where to turn! I feel it is my duty to ask since I bought a book for him all about fot-o-mat photos over the years and now he wants to see one in action.
Thank you

I think your best bet would be to find out a name of manufacturer or leasing company from the early days of those machines and try to trace the company, and see if they are still trading.
