Early days in the St. Mary's Medical School Photographic Department: Part 2.
Following Part 1 (1992; 15: 133-137), this second article covers the 1950s and 1960s. The enormous amount of work done for the Medical School's Centenary Exhibition to which no visitors came is outlined: Sir Alexander Fleming's picture of the 1928 culture plate of Penicillium; development of the cinelaryngeal camera; the introduction of modern techniques of duplication. Some comments on the quality that is lost with the use of modern automated 'foolproof' equipment.
