And I wonder if he was shooting with a Speed Graphic or Rollei TLR - the

Subject: Re: [OM] 1000 shots in a day
On the other hand, I was interviewing one of our trolley operators, who
is a retired photo journalist. He was part of a team from United Press
that was assigned to cover John F. Kennedy's trip to Dallas Tx. He said
that in that five day span he made 300 pictures. Whether that's exposed,
or published, I don't know.
Thanks, Steve Goss, Dallas Tx usa
