Visiting The Thrift Store
In 2017, Martijn was walking through town and suddenly found himself pulled towards a thrift store just a short distance away from where he was. Always excited about possibly stumbling onto some vintage photographs, he didn’t hesitate to go when the idea came into his head. Although limiting himself to a quick glance around the store as he was in a hurry, it was as soon as he was preparing to leave that something curious near the exit caught his eye.

The Camera
On one of the lower shelves, Martijn spotted a unique looking vintage camera. Upon closer inspection, he saw it was a Zeiss Ikon 520/2 and surprisingly, it was in great condition for something that was so old. Given the state it was in, he wondered whether it had perhaps only been used once or twice. Perhaps his wife would love this as a gift. How could he have known that he had actually stumbled onto something nearly 100 years old within the camera itself?
