- Dull grey metal flood/spotlight used in studio settings for film-making or photography. The main body of the light is shaped like a small barrel - one end has a carved crystal bordered in thick cord and the other has a door that opens by pushing a small button in order to access the light bulb inside. The centre of the door features the Bardwell & McAlister Inc. logo. The barrel also has housing attached to the top and bottom - one contains a lever that, when pushed from side to side, moves the light bulb inside closer to or further from the crystal. Attached to the front on either side of the crystal are brackets where a filter can be fit; a Y-shaped support can be rotated 180 degrees and is adjusted by a handle on one side; an on/off switch sits in a raised metal bracket on one side, and near the switch the power cord feeds out of the barrel - the cord is wrapped in grey fabric and is coiled up and attached to the support with a short length of rope. Attached to the power cord is an orange fabric bag with a wire drawstring that contains a silver metal cylinder that could possibly be an attachment for the support.

Three clasps on the lid, the centre one has a keyhole, no key. The handle on the lid may have been compressed paper or leather, but has been wrapped in black electrical tape so only the original metal loops and brackets remain. The carry strap attaches to both short sides with metal clips and is made of brown leather - the strap has a buckle that is undone so the two halves hang separately at the sides. Throughout the exterior are various travel stickers and labels, mostly torn.The interior of the case is lined with black paper and the bulk of the body is comprised of a particleboard insert separated into three compartments that sits on braces near the bottom, creating a hidden compartment underneath.Contents of the box include various camera accessories and equipment, as well as a collection of manuals for various film exposures. Includes a light reflector in a white bag with blue edges, a flash mount in a handmade red bag and the flash mount’s cords in a different dark red velvet bag (also in that bag are two extended triggers), a “Rolleflex” lens in a brown leather pouch inside a purple Crown Royal bag, eight manuals in a white “Canadian National Hotels” bag, two different sized yellow filters in clear plastic cases, and in a square cardboard box are two screws, a grey cable, a square lens and a 250 mm focuser, and a lens block.

- Description
- One cardboard box of Kodak Dry Mounting Tissue, used to bind a print to a mounting surface such as a board by using a hot press. According to the instructions on the box, a sheet of tissue is to be trimmed to match the size of the print and then placed into a dry mounting heat press with the tissue between the print and the surface it is being mounted to. Once in place, the hot press applies heat and pressure, fusing the print to the mount without the use of liquid adhesives, which might create rippling.
