Is this the Arnold Hall, who lived in Poolstock and had a daughter called Marilyn?

German made Rellei twin lens reflex. Top quality and very expensive even today.

I have just come across this photograph of my late Father. What a lovely surprise.

Arnold was famous for getting around on his scooter and often it would appear in his scenic photographs. He could often come to a sub-editir's rescue with a photograph to fill a large hole on a page, together with some historical facts.
