The enthusiast who goes to an exhibit with camera and plenty of flash bulbs can take them home by the dozens on film. And then when he tells his friends about the cars he saw he can whip out a few snapshots and point out the special features he's talking about. A camera collection is also the answer for the person who likes trains, boats, unusual rock forma* tions and varied types of arcfaiteeture-- in fact anything that can't be taken home except in picture. Handicraft hobbyists can also make good use of snapshots. Soma take pictures to illustrate step by step progress while others photograph the finished product. The latter idea is especially desirable when the product is an expendable item like a model airplane or a gingerbread house constructed for Christmas holiday decorations. In fact, enjoyment in practically any hobb> can be enhanced by photography. --John van Guilder /"COLLECTING is a popular hobby these days.
