Because digital photography steals the souls of old cars.
When you love old junkyard cars and even older film cameras, as I do, combining the two just can't go wrong. I've used 1910s box cameras and slightly newer twin-lens reflex cameras to capture decaying parts donors in High Plains Colorado boneyards, and now a legendary family-owned yard just south of Denver has placed better than 100 vintage machines in their regular self-service inventory.The Ansco Memo of the late 1920s is a fascinating piece of American camera history.
Because perforated 35mm film remains easy to get and still uses the sprocket-hole spacing from early-20th-century movie film, it's not difficult to reload Ansco Memo cartridges with new film. I'd only shot one roll on this camera before this, when I documented junkyard dashboards with it a few years back. With so many interesting old cars at Colorado Auto Parts, I would need that big 50-exposure capacity.
