100 Years of Camera Making in Birmingham

 

Explore local historian James Furnival’s collection of historical cameras and photographic equipment made in Birmingham.

The exhibition includes historic cameras and old, quirky spy equipment dated between 1860 and 1960. This special exhibition has been curated for Birmingham Heritage Week in our spacious Gallery.

On Saturday 12 September, James will be giving two talks during the day about the fascinating world of detective and disguised cameras, dating back over 150 years. Pre-book your ticket for this fascinating insight. Social distance measures will be in place for your safety and comfort.
