Veselé Vánoce a Štastný Nový Rok 2015
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2015
Dear long-time
customers and friends,
the Franks Camera Store building has finally been sold.
Frank and Vera and Jana have vacated the
building and that is just about the end of the story. Frank and
Vera are still quite active considering they are 90 and 88 years old
respectively. Frank is not too happy about not being able to take more
than a few steps before having to sit down again but he should be glad
that he is still alive, that is what counts!
Yes my parents could have sold the building
thirty years ago for more money and the proceeds of the sale would not
have all been wasted going to pay off all the mortgage debt that they
took on in those ensuing decades, but that would have been too logical,
they had to live and learn.
The old and mostly outdated inventory that
was in the camera store not just on the main floor where you could see
it but also in the equally large basement to some extent may still be
available in case that there might be something that you had your sights
on and wanted to buy but didn`t, although it may be very difficult or
even impossible to find the particular item at the temporary warehouse
location, but you are welcome to ask, e-mail me an inquiry to
milan@vacek.cz and I will forward
the inquiry to Mr.Derek Hunt (my sister Jana`s son) who might know where
it is, if it had not already been donated to photography schools etc.
So I will leave this website intact for a few
weeks, months or perhaps even years for old times` nostalgia sake,
but eventually it will just disappear from the web, like the sand
castles along beaches, the circle of life that we are all part of.
Happy ThanksGiving 2014,
and enjoy your youth and health while you have it and prepare for the
tougher times that advanced age brings with it.
Thank you very much for being such loyal customers and
we love you all and as Bob Hope used to sing, "Thanks for the
memories" , in the end that is all we have left and all that is left of
us when we are gone, so let the memories be good, positive and worth
remembering! Milan :-)
PS - I hope that you will try my recipe
for cooking Hulled Millet on
www.HulledMillet.com .
For the English language version of the recipe in a succint one page
easy to print format go to:
http://www.jahly.cz/Hulled-Millet-RECIPE-by-Milan---Revised-June-20-2011-In-ENGLISH.pdf
The bare survival
of millions of people in third-world countries depends on more people
eating healthy and ecologically ideal optimal vegan foods like Hulled
Millet, Quinoa, Amaranth and Buckwheat and less meat, and perhaps
eventually hopefully no meat at all, because who are we to decide
which animals live and which will be caged and force-fed unhealthy food
and will have to die to satisfy our animal instincts for eating meat,
which really is not good for us unless the animal is allowed to live and
eat as it was meant to by the creator, and even then it will probably
shorten our life-span and negatively impact our health to eat a lot of
animal corpses.
My favorite poem and mantra is:

Welcome
To The
Frank's Highland Park Camera
Website
PHOTOGRAPHIC
FILTERS AND ADAPTER RINGS
Inventory Total-Closeout SALE!
What's for sale? EVERYTHING Including the Building!
|
Please note that at Frank's
there really are tons of filters and also lots of adapter rings, and
other accessories, particularly behind the long line of wall-counters
and even more so in the warehouse in the basement of the store.
You will not find all types and sizes that you might need but on the
other hand there is a huge quantity of them from the days when Franks
used to import them directly, and perhaps if you make a reasonable offer
Frank will sell you a large quantity at a huge discount, perhaps the
whole inventory if your offer will be reasonable, try him! Once
the inventory is sold, perhaps Frank and Vera might finally retire, you
would be doing them a favor if you buy everything even if it is "for
peanuts"! Those
filters must still be somewhere.

Frank's
Highland Park Camera,
(famous photo is from 1968)
Los Angeles, California!
God
Bless America! |

Franks Camera by the beach! If you thought that
Frank and Vera would be in heaven by now, well, not yet, not by a longshot,
as you can see from this photo from August 2012 taken by a kind stranger
at the world-famous Hanauma Bay on Oahu in Hawaii. After all, Heaven
can wait! And don't worry, Jana's not ready for heaven just yet
either, even though due to a very freaky accident in her home she was not
able to join us in Hawaii, she's doing just fine now, back to her loquatious, vivatious and boisterous self. If you are a sucker for
nostalgia or just want to say "ALOHA" to Frank and Vera and Jana you are
welcome to stop by the store any Tuesday through Friday from around Noon
through 4:00 PM (but not a minute later!) and you can say "Hi" to them
personally, but to see yours truly Milan you will have to take a plane to
Prague, unless I happen to be in Honolulu, my little bit of Heaven on
Earth! |

Daniela (Milan's Czech-born
wife), daughter Kathy, Vera holding on to Frank in the wheelchair, Milan,
son Adam, and (missing) Jana's granddaughter Bridgette, whose mom Renee
took the photo, taken at the LAX airport during a layover in Milan's
family's flight back to Prague. ALOHA :-) |
Hi everybody!
We're still here, more or less, after more than
45 years in
business!
We still have quite a few items from
a by-gone era that nobody else
has (anymore).
We no
longer advertise on E-Bay, but you can call, write, or come by to
try to find something you might need and get a real bargain!
Frank never even liked computers, Jana hates them and doesn't
have a clue how to use one, and while Vera tried to learn to use her
computer, she gave up on it as it was taking too much time to even
turn on, and all those thousands of spams and virus-laden e-mails made
her give up on the computer altogether. So your first choice of communications with Franks
Camera other than a personal visit is always the telephone, always call first, and just ask for
Frank and see if he has what you need!
Franks Camera Store Building will probably be leased
out or sold sometime in the near future, so to try to cut down on the
inventory you will not find many of
the latest photographic and video products, but there are still many
photographic filters and other accessories in stock at great bargains!
The OPENING HOURS are not as regular as they used to be,
but we are usually open Tuesdays through Fridays only, and only from around Noon Through
around 4PM, please call 323
255 0123 or 323 255 5151 to verify hours on any particular day,
but on
Mondays Frank and Vera usually stay in the Desert, and therefore
on Mondays the store is closed, and on Saturdays
and Sundays the store is definitely closed. It is best to park in the rear, where you can park
for two hours for free.
As "Time goes By" the store has become more of an old-timers' museum
of outdated relics and accessories that you probably will not
see anywhere else, and quite messy to put it mildly, but if you want
to experience an out-of-the-ordinary experience and perhaps discover
some photographic equipment that you thought you would never see again
you just might get lucky! At 89 and 87 Frank and Vera could just stay
home on the ranch and take it easy but no, that would be too logical
and too easy, that`s not their style, they must keep busy and there is
no doubt as economically illogical as it indeed is that keeping the
store open is helping them stay alive!
But it certainly makes no economic sense, so if you know someone who is
looking for a commercial building like the Franks Camera Store
building either to buy or lease, please just stop by, don't try to
make a firm appointment because it is never really sure when they
might have to go to some doctor's appointment, but come in and have a
talk with them and if you are genuinely interested then submit them a
solid offer and perhaps it will open their eyes long enough to see the
light and agree to sell or lease the building and retire! :-)
The new METRO Gold Line Avenue
58 Station just a few steps from our convenient rear entrance is now
fully operational and every day every few minutes supermodern quet and
sleek electric metro trains glide by in both directions in perfect
comfort!
|
As Frank says, "If Nobody
Has It ... We May (Not Either) ...
But It's Worth A Try!" |
Give Us A
Call, And WE WILL
START LOOKING ... ! |
You should pick up the phone and call Frank, Vera, or Jana personally at:
323 255 0123 or
323 255 5151
or fax: 323 255 1036
e-Mail:
Franks no longer accepts
e-mails, sorry! The computer died, that's it!
(There are just way too many spams and computer viruses, Frank just
doesn't want
to be bothered with all the problems of e-mails these days so he simply
shut down
his computer and went back to doing business "the old fashioned way", on
the phone!
So please just call us on the phone,
and see if
we have what you need, you never know,
sometimes we don't either, let's surprise each other!
Ask Frank or Vera about their latest
specials
and to check on close-outs and newest "discoveries"
in their huge and in some cases museum-quality inventory!

www.iherb.com by any major credit card including
American Express, VISA or MasterCard or Discover or Diners Card,
and the best part of this deal is that if you live in the Czech

package might occasionally arrive from the

your friends' discount code for a year and so on, and if you
don't order enough free merchandise to use up your credits and
your accumulated credits within six months add up to more than
$300.00 USD you will receive a check in this amount from
www.iherb.com
automatically in your mailbox! I know, it sounds too good to be
true but it is true, and the best part of this deal is that I
have been ordering all the vitamins and supplements that I need
for my personal use from this vendor for several years because
they really do have the widest selection of all the finest brand
names many of which you will not find on other internet vendor's
websites at any price but at
www.iherb.com they are already offered at
the lowest possible prices, as much as approx. 20% - 30% Off
Manufacturers' Suggested Retail Prices, cheaper on many items
than you could buy these identical supplements at huge
health-foods stores such as
www.WholeFoods.com
in the USA, and even more importantly, many of these renowned
brands and products are not even available on the European
market. If you want to compare the actual retail prices
and see for yourself what incredible bargains you will be
getting even without considering the additional first order
instant $ 10.00 off and the continuing FREE SHIPPING OFFER as
described above on all orders, and not just during Christmas,
just have a look at the
www.iHerb.com very well illustrated and detailed and yet
user-friendly website. . On the very well designed website you
will see complete descriptions and photos of all the products
that are offered for sale including detailed close-ups of the
actual product labels and the actual list of all ingredients and
recommended dosage, and instant links to the manufacturer's
websites for even more information about the products being
offered, and as you add merchandise to your internet shopping
cart on www.iherb.com the
packaged weight and the subtotal of the actual total price will
be continuously updated so that you will see when you have
reached the maximum total of $80.00 purchase and 1.8 kg shipping
weight so that you will still qualify for the FREE SHIPPING by
Global Mail by DHL + DeutschePost (or other method of shipping
that www.iherb.com
might find to be an even better method of shipping FREE to your
country in EUROPE) . And of course
you don't have to live in the Czech Republic to take advantage
of this fantastic deal, I have for example ordered vitamins from
www.iherb.com on many
occasions in the past for my parents who live in Los Angeles and
also got free shipping and additional discounts and my parents
received the supplements in just a couple of days because
www.iherb.com also has
a huge warehouse in California, for example, and if your
shipping address is in the 48 USA States (except Hawaii and
Alaska) your entire order above $40. will be shipped free
regardless of the total amount of the order, so order at will!
And when you are choosing from their incredible selection of
supplements on their website you will always see exactly whether
the items you are ordering are in stock and when you order them,
you will receive them without delay. I wished I owned a share in
iherb.com but I don't, I am just a very satisfied customer! I
always preferred ordering from
www.iherb.com because they were willing to ship to the Czech
Republic. On the
www.iherb.com website they
have a very sophisticated
search engine to help you find the supplements
that you need by brand name, ingredients, ailment etc. So please
don't forget to specify on your first order the
special instant $10. OFF*
www.iherb.com
code: VAC593
(*On Your First Orders of $40. or more, or $5.00 OFF
on any order
over $20). |

filter na vzduch
Nejlepší filtr na vzduch na světě! Žádné
náklady spojené s provozem!
Incidentally, after consullting with the
technicians at the manufacturere of the Ionic-Care air-filters I
tried to use this product intended to be used only in Europe where
the voltage is 220V AC and 50 Hz and with the use of an inexpensive
50W step-up electrical transformer which increases the voltage from
110V to 220Volts AC but is not able to change the frequency from
60Hz to 50Hz and the instrument seems to work just fine, except that
if you intend to use it in the vicinity of an ocean shore with the
salty corrosive winds well donot even think about it because the
chromed metal filter collector insert is not designed for such a
corrosive environment and it will begin rusting in just weeks.
