Lamperti and Garbagnati was a camera maker in Milan in the late nineteenth century,[1][2] and the early twentieth. The firm was started in 1883 by engineer Edoardo Lamperti and photographic goods-dealer Garbagnati, who took over a small existing photographic business. The firm's products were at first professional cameras. Later, cameras for amateurs were also made, including detective cameras. The company also retailed goods made by other makers (Storia della Fotografia states that they were the Italian distributor for Taylor and Hobson[1]).
