When the blinding flash of the Graflex pops you're immediately transported to another era--the nightclub era of illicit cocktails, big bands, torch singers, cigarette girls, double breasted suits and rhinestone pins.

Roaming that nightclub, ready to preserve your evening of elegant entertainment was--the Camera Girl. Out came her smile, up went her Graflex Century Graphic, pop went the flash and within an hour you were delivered a souvenir photo with the nightclub's logo emblazoned on the cover.

Mark "Flash" Mattos and his Camera Girl, "Betty", roam the clubs, restaurants, and events of today where the right combination of food, music, and good company holds some memory of the glory days of America's nightclub past. Look sharp, you could be in the Camera Girl's frame!
