“(…) The camera is as simple as it is inventive; the truck being a big light-tight box with lenses sealed into its broad side. Mr. Irving climbs in, often fumbling around in the dark. He sets the aperture with a piece of scrap paper. His shutter is a cardboard box.
Throw in a couple buckets of developer, fixer, a garden hose and some sponges, and the camera can produce an image four feet tall and eight feet wide.”
