Very interesting photos - I know an upgraded different model of my HP printer has a fluoro lamp in the lid and a negative holder to scan 35mm negatives. I was annoyed when I learned that mine was the poorer sister! Perhaps that is an option for you.

The 5th one down, marked 'Auster 151', I have seen before.
The gent is Gerald Oman.

That first shot is the snout of an Agricola. HRH Phil attended an demonstration by that at Halswell near Christchurch, so I guess Lawson Field was there too? (P39, "The Topdressers")
I'm sure that the photo of Gerald Oman and ATO is also in "The Topdressers" and that one of the four Fieldair guys but just now I can't find it.

They've all been well published before,'The Supermen',both 'Topdressers' and in magazines and newspaper articles over the decades.
They are no doubt file pictures that Wade Studios took over the years,in the day most firms hired the local photographer to take commercial photos for the firms publicity and advertising purposes.
