When Bruce Brown filmed the first "The Endless Summer" film, he used only one camera and this is it. This Bolex camera with its plexiglass watertight case are a recent addition to The International Surfing Museum.

This is one of the original film posters from "The Endless Summer." The copy on the poster reads (in part), "On any day of the year it's summer somewhere in the world. Bruce Brown's latest color film hilights the adventures of two young American surfers, Robert August and Mike Hynson who follow this everlasting summer around the world."

One day, as Bruce Brown was shooting film at the beach, a then little-known artist, who also happened to be at the beach, drew this illustration on the top of Brown's camera box. That artist was Leroy Nieman.

This photograph was taken of Robert August (left) and Bruce Brown at Los Angeles Airport as they were leaving to film "The Endless Summer" in 1962.
