Art, I saw a "Half Century of Color" for sale on eBay recently; you might take a look in Completed Items on eBay
on the chance it didn't sell. A Photographer's Place in NYC used to have some copies. You might try them;
they're on Mercer St. in Manhattan.
I also saw a 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 Curtis Color Scout for sale on eBay a few months ago. I have a 4X5 color scout, in
pristine condition, which I'm not selling; however, most of the filters are delaminated, and I only have one
good set of filters. (Each set of three holders has a different colored filter in each holder.) If you ever
come across a set of 4/5 Curtis holders with intact filters, e-mail me at your earliest convenience!
I have also seen tricolor cameras at auction at Swann Galleries, NYC.
Also, in Camera Shopper magazine, there was a guy in California named George Skelly who was selling a number of
tricolor cameras about a year ago. You might try contacting Camera Shopper (Jay Tepper, in Connecticut) to get
Mr. Skelly's phone number.
Hope this helps.
