蔡司骨董折疊相機 Zeiss Ikon Folding Antique Camera

這台Zeiss蛇腹式折疊相機是二次戰後，父親的老闆即將被遣送回國前送他的禮物。附件還有紅色濾鏡、自拍器和三腳架。相機使用120底片。每次拍完一張相片必須用手捲動底片，一個膠捲可拍16張。光圈、快門和對焦距離也需要用手工調整。我在1961~1979年間都用這台相機拍照。最近一次拍攝的時間是1979年，地點是墾丁公園。原機的外殼有點氧化剝落，我用綠色絨布將外殼整個貼上。皮套保存得相當完整。

This Zeiss folding camera was a gift from my father's boss before he was deported home after the Second World War. Accessories include a red filter, self-timer and tripod. The camera uses 120 negatives. The film had to be rolled by hand after each shot, and a roll of film could take 16 shots. Aperture, shutter and focus distance also needed to be adjusted by hand. I used this camera from 1961 to 1979. The last time I took pictures was in 1979, in Kenting Park. The original case was a little oxidised and peeling, so I used green flannel to cover the entire case. The leather case is very well preserved.

Sony 902 五吋盤式真空管錄音機 Sony 902 5-inch Reel-to-reel Vacuum Tube Recorder

一九六八年，我在台北工專讀書，當時花六百塊錢購買一台二手的 Sony 902 五吋盤式真空管錄音機。用了五十多年，現在還能放出當年的錄音。二十多年前，因為外箱漆皮紙有點剝落，我用油漆重新塗裝，就成了現在的樣子。

In 1968, when I was studying at the Taipei Institute of Technology, I bought a second-hand Sony 902 five-inch disc-type vacuum tube recorder for 600 yuan. For over fifty years, Recordings from that year are still available. More than 20 years ago, because the patent paper on the outer box peeled off a bit, I repainted it with paint, and it became what it is now.

我猜想戰後不久生產的真空管錄音機，數量應該不會很多。一九九六年，突然想起寫信給日本Sony公司，詢問他們是否仍然保有操作手冊。沒想到Sony 公司不僅寄來Sony 902操作手冊、線路圖，還附上歷年來生產各種錄音機型錄。

I suspect that the number of vacuum tube tape recorders produced shortly after the war would not be many. In 1996, it suddenly occurred to me to write a letter to Sony company in Japan and ask if they still have the operating manual. Unexpectedly, Sony company not only sent Sony 902 operation manual, the circuit diagram is also attached to the catalog of various tape recorders produced over the years.

二十世紀日本製造的產品有很好的口碑。從Sony 公司對使用者的服務態度也能看出端倪。前幾天，為了取出六個大中小磁鐵，花了三小時拆卸兩個 Pioneer 橢圓形喇叭，又再次見識了二十世紀日本的工藝技術之美。台灣老一輩的工匠和技師，多少也傳承這種實事求是，一絲不苟的日本精神，可惜的是，已經逐漸凋零。

Products made in Japan in the twentieth century have a good reputation. The clue can also be seen from Sony's service attitude towards users. A few days ago, in order to take out six large, medium and small magnets, it tooks me three hours to disassemble two Pioneer oval horns, and once again I saw the beauty of Japanese craftsmanship in the 20th century. The older generation of craftsmen and technicians in Taiwan have also inherited this pragmatic and meticulous Japanese spirit to some extent. Unfortunately, it has gradually withered away.

手工紙小提琴 Violin Made of Paper

華堡是美國密蘇里州的小鎮。1835 由來自歐洲的移民者John and Martin D. Warren於1835年建立命名。華堡也是移民者從東部進入西部的蓬車要道 Oregon Trail 的入口。因此這裡有許多西部開拓時期的古蹟和遺物。 1991年我在華堡的舊貨間 Trash Treasures 看到這個手工紙做的小提琴，就買下來帶回台灣。後來用掃描器將實物存成圖形檔，小提琴也切出來加進台語語音筆記本的CD封面。

Warrensburg is a small town in the state of Missouri, USA, named after John and Martin D. Warren, settlers from Europe, who founded it in 1835. Warrensburg was also the entrance to the Oregon Trail, the main caravan route for settlers coming from the east into the west. As a result there are many monuments and relics from the pioneering days of the West. In 1991 I saw this handmade paper fiddle in the Trash Treasures, a thrift shop in the main street and bought it to bring back to Taiwan. The fiddle was then scanned and saved as a graphic file. Later the image of paper violin was cut out carefully and added to the CD cover of my Taiwanese Speech Notepad.

Lloyd's 六石電晶體收音機 Lloyd's Electronics - Six Transistor TR-6T Radio

Regency TR-1是第一個民用電晶體收音機，由美國印第安納州的印第安納波利斯市工業發展工程師協會Regency部研製，於1954年11月投入市場。當時價格49.95美元。這台英國製造的 Lloyd's Electronics - Six Transistor TR-6T Radio 於1965年生產，袖珍型的收音機可以放在襯衫口袋內。這是我在台南市中讀書時參加大陽製藥股份有限公司舉辦的有獎徵文入選獎品。據說當年價值新台幣500元。入選獎品還有到日本旅遊和黃金抽獎。雖然沒有抽中大獎，光是這台六石的電晶體收音機就讓我風光了好久。只是電源使用9V積層乾電池，學生時代實在負擔不起，後來加裝整流器電源，於是成了現在的模樣。前幾天接上電池，竟然還能收聽不少電台，就把它當作紀念品收藏。

The Regency TR-1 was the first transistor radio for civilian use, developed by the Regency Division of the Society of Industrial Development Engineers in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA, and introduced to the market in November 1954. The price was US$49.95. This British made Lloyd's Electronics - Six Transistor TR-6T Radio was produced in 1965 and is a pocket sized radio that fits in a shirt pocket. It was selected as a prize in an essay competition organised by Kayo Pharmaceuticals when I was a student at Tainan City High School. I was told that it was worth NT$500 back then. The prize also included a trip to Japan and a gold raffle. Although I didn't win the first prize, this six-transistor radio made me look good for a long time. The only thing is that it is powered by a 9V battery, which I couldn't afford when I was a student, so I added a rectifier power supply and it became what it is now. A few days ago, I connected it to the battery and was able to listen to many radio stations, so I kept it as a souvenir.

DOS 時代的多媒體光碟 The DOS Version of Multimedia CD

DOS 版的多媒體編輯器(VIKON Multimedia Editor for DOS) Demo

在我學習電腦的時代，使用電腦的人必須自己撰寫程式。那時候的通用程式語言是Assembly， FORTRAN和COBOL。即使到了1980年代，個人電腦問世以後，應用軟體仍然相當有限。剛開始使用微軟DOS作業系統的人，仍然必須撰寫自己需要的應用程式。我自己就曾經寫過文書處理、資料管理、多媒體編輯播放工具和專家系統程式。

大約在1990年，多媒體開始在美國萌芽，把文字、圖片、聲音和影像整合在一起。一直流行到今天。其實DOS和Windows的多媒體在本質上並無不同。只是在DOS跑多媒體，必須安裝高檔的繪圖卡和音效卡。除了花大錢以外，不論使用者或程式開發者都必須對作業系統有更深入的了解。隨著時間的推移。硬體的功能和執行速度已經大幅提升。 Windows的多媒體不論程式開發或使用都比較容易上手。DOS 時代的多媒體軟體本就不多。到了Windows系統盛行時，軟體就如同雨後春荀般，不可勝數。隨著這股潮流，我也曾把在DOS開發的程式移植到Windows。從前在DOS版的多媒體編輯和播放系統，不久後也束之高閣，成了古董。

現在的電腦幾乎無法執行DOS程式。不過，電腦世界實在奇妙。不少人對曾經用過的DOS遊戲軟體情有獨鍾。念念不忘之餘，甚至有人開發出可以在新版Windows執行的DOS系統模擬器。例如 DOSBOX 和 DOSBOX staging。我用它在 Windows 10 執行1990's 開發的DOS軟體，幾乎可以完全相容。因此，雖是老舊的多媒體光碟，也就值得收藏了。

手中有這張CD的朋友，若想在win7/win10 回味這張多媒體光碟，可以依照下述方法執行:

1. 從Internet 下載 dosbox-staging-windows-v0.75.0
2. 解壓後執行 dosbox.exe 會產生 dosbox-staging.conf 檔案
3. 將 dosbox-staging.conf 檔案中的 capture_mouse: 修改為 onstart (或 nomouse) fullscreen = true
4. 執行 dosbox.exe 後，在 Z> 加上 mount e e:\ (若e: 為光碟機)
5. 從 e:\ 執行 start 可看 DOS 版林榮德音樂藝術專輯，但 mpeg 無法 play 。

DOS 版的多媒體播放器(TITES Multimedia Player for DOS) Demo

In the days when I was studying computers, people who used computers had to write their own programs. The common programming languages at that time were Assembly, FORTRAN and COBOL. Even in the 1980s, after the advent of the personal computer, software applications were still fairly limited. People who are new to Microsoft's DOS operating system still have to write the applications they need. In 1990s I myself have written word processing, data management, multimedia editing and playback tools and expert system programs.

Around 1990, multimedia began to sprout in the United States, integrating text, pictures, sound, and video. popular to this day. In fact, the multimedia of DOS and Windows is not different in essence. Just run multimedia in DOS, you must install a high-end graphics card and sound card. In addition to spending a lot of money, both users and program developers must have a deeper understanding of the operating system. AS time goes by, The functionality and execution speed of the hardware has been greatly improved. Windows multimedia is relatively easy to use regardless of program developers or users. There were not many multimedia software in the DOS era. When the Windows system prevailed, innumerable software was like spring shoots after rain. With this trend, I have also ported programs developed in DOS to Windows. The multimedia editing and playback system that used to be in the DOS version was soon put on the shelf and became an antique.

Today's computers are almost incapable of executing DOS programs. However, the computer world is amazing. Many people have a soft spot for the DOS game software they have used. After thinking about it, some people even developed a DOS system emulator that can be executed in the new version of Windows. For example DOSBOX and DOSBOX staging. I use it to run DOS software developed in the 1990's on Windows 10 and it is almost fully compatible. Therefore, although it is an old multimedia CD, it is also worth collecting. Friends who have this CD in their hands, if you like to review this multimedia CD in win7/win10, you can follow the following methods:

1. Download dosbox-staging-windows-v0.75.0 from the Internet
2. Executing dosbox.exe after decompression will generate the dosbox-staging.conf file
3. Change capture_mouse: in the dosbox-staging.conf file to onstart (or nomouse) and fullscreen = true
4. After executing dosbox.exe, add mount e e:\ (if e: is a CD drive)
5. If you execute start from e:\ , you can view the DOS version of Jong-Teh's Music and Art album, but mpeg cannot be played.

手工製作的小提琴 Handmade Violin

這是1960年代由台南雅音樂器行林茂松先生手工製作的小提琴。六十多年來除了更換琴弓馬毛、琴弦，加裝調音螺絲以外幾乎是原來的模樣。1970年台北的學校餐廳一餐大約4~5元。在中華商場更換琴弓180條馬尾毛要價90元。每條馬尾毛花費0.5元與一張電腦上機用的IBM80行卡相當。

This is a handmade violin by Mr. Mou-Sung Lin of Tainan Yayin Musical Instrument Shop in the 1960s. For more than 60 years, it has remained almost the same except for replacing the horsehair of the bow, the strings, and adding tuning screws. In 1970, a meal in a school cafeteria in Taipei cost about 4 to 5 yuan. At the Zhonghua Department Store Area, it costs 90 yuan to replace 180 horsetail hairs for a violin bow. Each horsetail hair costs 0.5 yuan, which is equivalent to an IBM 80-line card used in a computer.

Minolta Mini 35 II 古董幻燈機 Minolta Mini 35-II M Slide Projector

Minolta mini 35 II 幻燈機於1969年上市。它被設計為 35 毫米幻燈片的緊湊型便攜式投影機，易於使用，體積小巧，適合個人或小團體觀看。圖示幻燈機每次只能看兩張幻燈片，看完必須手工換片。可供選擇的附件包括散熱風扇和自動換片器。

Minolta Mini 35-II M slide projector was released in 1969. It was designed as a compact, portable projector for 35mm slides, offering ease of use and a compact size for personal or small group viewing. The slide projector shown in the picture can only display two slides at a time, and the slides must be changed manually after viewing. Optional accessories include cooling fans and automatic slide changer.

墨水筆架與墨水匣 Ink Pen Holder and Ink Cartridge

日治時期，國民教育開始普及。不過由於鋼筆尚未普及，一般學生練習書寫時都用鉛筆，書寫正式文件時才用墨水筆。寫字時要經常沾墨水，因此少不了要有墨水匣。圖示的墨水筆架與墨水匣是家父的日本老闆於1945年被遣送回國時送給父親的紀念物。我在讀中學時開始用墨水筆練習書法。當時雖然已經有鋼筆，不過我覺得用墨水筆寫出來的字比較漂亮。因為只要能夠掌控墨水的流量，字體比起用鋼筆寫的字有較多的變化。

During the Japanese occupation, national education in Taiwan began to become popular. However, since fountain pens were not yet popular, most students used pencils when practicing writing and used ink pens when writing formal documents. When writing with a pen, you often need to dip the ink, so an ink cartridge is essential. The ink pen holder and ink box shown in the picture were souvenirs given to my father by his Japanese boss when the boss was deported back to his country in 195. I started practicing calligraphy with an ink pen when I was in middle school. Although fountain pens were already available at that time, I felt that words written with ink pens were more beautiful. Because as long as you can control the flow of ink, the font can have more variations than writing with a fountain pen.

查理王子與黛安娜王妃結婚紀念幣 1981 Prince Charles and Princess Diana Wedding Commemorative Coin

這是1981年查理王子與黛安娜王妃結婚時，英國發行的紀念幣。當時我正在第三核能發電廠工作。有一次在南灣海邊遇見一對從英國來台旅遊的英國夫婦。隔年他們又來台灣，於是我邀請他們順道到台南旅遊。Dr. Devin 是剛退休的醫生，他的妻子Peggy 還把他們在恆春遇見我的事寫在她的日記裡，拿給我看。這個銀幣就是他們送我的紀念品。Peggy 還特別告訴我，這枚是經過教宗加持過的紀念幣。我和他們通信二十多年，直到Devin夫婦相繼過世為止。

This is a commemorative coin issued by the UK when Prince Charles married Princess Diana in 1981. I was working at the Third Nuclear Power Plant at the time. One time I met a British couple who were traveling to Taiwan from the UK at the beach in Nanwan. The following year they came to Taiwan again, so I invited them to travel to Tainan. Dr. Devin is a recently retired doctor. His wife Peggy even wrote down their encounter with me in Hengchun in her diary and showed it to me. This silver coin is the souvenir they gave me. Peggy also told me that this is a commemorative coin blessed by the Pope. I corresponded with them for more than 20 years until Mr. and Mrs. Devin passed away one after another.

幻燈片看片機 Pana-vue Slide viewer

還沒購買幻燈機以前，我先買這台看片機，用來篩選幻燈片。原件使用1.5 V 乾電池作為電源。整流變壓器是我後來加裝的。這台看片機有一種特殊效果，會讓某些顏色產生層次，因此幻燈片看起來有立體感。

Before I bought a slide projector, I bought this film viewer to screen slides. The original uses a 1.5 V dry cell as power source. The rectifier transformer was installed by me later. This viewer has a special effect that creates level in certain colors, so the slides look three-dimensional.

口琴 Harmonica

口琴是家裡唯一的樂器。我的父母親都會吹口琴。但是不知是甚麼原因，他們都不曾教我。我在讀初中時開始自學口琴。原因是我自小就有很好的相對音感，可以一面聽音樂，一面把簡譜寫下來。所以很容易就把聽到的音樂用口琴演奏出來。讀高中時用零用錢買一支C 調的日本製的蝴蝶牌口琴。後來表舅到日本時又送我一支A調的山葉牌口琴和一把半音口琴。因此手邊就有三把口琴。口琴因為攜帶方便，所以出國讀書時便順手把口琴帶在身邊。
有一次我在黃昏時刻越過校園，從宿舍到電腦實驗室。習習的晚風中拿著口琴一邊走著，一邊吹奏台灣歌謠組曲和歐美的民謠。到了電腦實驗室側門樓梯口正要上樓時，忽然聽見 "Thank you for the wonderful music." 回頭一看，不知何時，後面跟著一隊美國學生。我微笑點點頭就上樓了。就在幾個星期前，我向同班同學介紹台灣傳統衛生紙(土紙)的製作。講完，獲得許多掌聲和友誼。無形中也拉近彼此的距離。這個難得的口琴經驗，再一次讓我對美國人從不吝於讚美別人的民族性印象深刻。

The harmonica is the only musical instrument in my family. Both of my parents can play the harmonica. But for some reason, they never taught me. I started teaching myself to play the harmonica when I was in junior high school. The reason is that I have had a very good sense of relative pitch since I was a child, and I can write down the simple score while listening to music. So it is easy to play the music I hear with the harmonica. When I was in senior high school, I used my pocket money to buy a Japanese-made Butterfly brand harmonica in the key of C. Later, when my mother's cousin back from Japan, he gave me a Yamaha harmonica in A key and a chromatic harmonica. So there are three harmonicas on hand. Because the harmonica is easy to carry, I took it with me when I went abroad to study.
One time I was walking across campus at dusk, from my dorm to the computer lab. I walked in the gentle evening breeze, holding my harmonica and playing Taiwanese folk songs and other folk songs. When I reached the side door of the computer lab and was about to go upstairs, I suddenly heard "Thank you for the wonderful music." I looked back and saw a group of American students following me. I smiled, nodded and went upstairs. Just a few weeks ago, I introduced the making of traditional Taiwanese toilet paper to my classmates. After the speech, I received a lot of applause and friendship. It also invisibly brings us closer to each other. This rare harmonica experience once again impressed me with the American character of never being reluctant to praise others.

飛馬牌縫紉機與縫布邊機 Pegasus Sewing Machine and Overlock Machine (MIMA Sewing Machine MFG Co., Ltd)

台灣在二次戰後百業蕭條，一般百姓生活極為困苦。1949年國民黨軍民轉進來台，本地居民生活更是雪上加霜。我家原有的小型成衣加工廠在父親病倒時也跟著結束營業。1953年從繁華的台南市中區搬遷到北區較為偏僻的鴨母寮市場後面租屋居住。我讀小學時的感覺就是飢寒交迫。一直到就讀初中以後，父母開始從事成衣代工，家境才逐漸好轉。當時所所用的生財器具如縫紉機與縫布邊機全是二手貨。因為請不起專業技工，所以簡單的機器維修工作都歸我負責。這些日本製造的機器雖是舊品，卻相當耐用。經過60年仍然可以正常操作。即使父母已經過世多年，我仍然捨不得丟棄。經常保養潤滑，就當作童年的生活回憶收藏著。

After World War II, all industries in Taiwan were in recession and ordinary people lived in extreme hardship. In 1949, the Kuomintang army and civilians moved into Taiwan, local people's lives became even more difficult. My family's original small garment processing factory also closed down when my father fell ill. In 1953, we moved from the bustling Central District of Tainan City to a rented house behind the more remote Yamuliao Market in the Northern District. When I was in elementary school, I felt hungry and cold. It was not until I entered junior high school that my parents started working as garment OEM workers and our family's financial situation gradually improved. The money-making tools used at that time, such as sewing machines and overlock machine, were all second-hand. Since we cannot afford professional technicians, simple machine maintenance work falls to me. Although these Japanese-made machines are old, they are quite durable. It is still operating normally after 60 years. Even though my parents have passed away for many years, I still can't bear to throw it away. Maintain and lubricate it regularly and keep it as a memory of my childhood.
