The couple toured the French provinces and as far as Cairo (the 1872-73 season).

5. The Kidnappers Foil of camera focus

The Kidnappers Foil was one of Melton Barker's films.

The same script would be shot repeatedly in different towns with a different cast across the United States from the 1930s though the 1950s. Melton Barker Juvenile Productions would contact local theaters and newspapers to sponsor the film, after which a casting call for children would go out and parents would be encouraged to fill out the paperwork provided and after paying a small fee, the children would participate in a short audition before a representative of the production company. This company would consist of a skeleton crew consisting of Melton Barker, a camera man, a sound man, and an assistant.

The plot of the films hardly changed with each production. In each a young girl, Betty Davis, is kidnapped and held for ransom following her birthday. Her father offers a reward of $1,000 for her return.

A group of young boys led by Butch, imagine what they could do with the reward and set out in search for Betty. Soon another group of even younger children attempt to join the search, but are refused and set out upon their own. A group of local girls soon join with Butch and his gang.

After several days with no results the gang once again imagines what they will do with the money. Soon after they catch the kidnappers napping, and rescue Betty. All of the children are invited to Betty's house to celebrate, where they perform several song and dance numbers.

The Kidnappers Foil was produced in different cities across the country over one hundred and thirty times. Once completed these films would be screened locally, prior to a Hollywood feature film yet receiving more advertising space. These films tended to get positive reviews regardless of the quality.

Barker would film The Kidnappers Foil many times from the 1930s through the 1970s. He also worked on several non-fiction itinerant films. These were The Centralia Story and The Cape Girardeau Story.

His last known residence was Meridian, Mississippi. He died in March 1977 while still on the road. In 2012 The Kidnappers Foil was added to the Library of Congress' National Film Registry.

6. Biography of camera focus

She was born Cecil Weiner on August 15, 1928 in New Jersey. She was given the name Cecil after an aunt who served as a judge in Oakland, California.

Her artistic career commenced in the late 1940s when she was educated at Harvard University's Radcliffe College, where she read art history and the theory and practice of drawing and painting. Josp graduated with a bachelor of arts degree in 1951. She lived in New York in the early 1950 and was a representational painter when abstract expressionists emerged within the art world.

She married the Belgian Roger Josp in 1958 and relocated to London five years later. Josp's marriage and the birth of her three children stopped her from working as a creative artist until she enrolled on a part-time degree in professional photography at the Polytechnic of Central London (now the University of Westminster). She learnt how to print color transparencies and was intrigued in 5x4 camera technology.

Josp used the skills she learnt to photograph her life as a housewife and mother over the past quarter of a century; her obituarist in The Times described them as "icons of domesticity with an undercurrent of irony" and "profoundly personal and psychologically eerie." Josp held solo exhibitions of her work at The Photographers' Gallery in Great Newport Street, London in 1983 and 1985. She also considered training as a psychologist and was the Analytical Psychology Club of London's secretary, for which she designed a club logo and letterhead.

Between 1985 and 1997 Josp went to classes at the Slade School of Fine Art in the belief she would help other professional art bodies, and was mentioned in the Richard Platt's The Ultimate Photo Data Guide in 1989 for her work on a French phrasebook. Eventually she ceased to work in photography and returned to her first interest of painting; she focused mainly on watercolours. In 1992, Josp underwent an operation for cancer and was able to continue painting for as long as she could.

She was elected to the Chelsea Art Club, the Royal Watercolour Society in 2001, and the New English Art Club two years later. Josp was a regular exhibitor at the latter two societies with studies on ponies, purple buds and white flowers put on a dark background. She died in London on May 17, 2004.

The New English Art Club named the Cecil Josp Prize after her. It is awarded to "members to the work of a non-members."
