Sartaj Din Jouhar Sold at Auction Prices

b. 1901 - d. 1963

Sartaj Din Jouhar (1901-1963) was born in India and, after studying science at the University of Amritsar, he came to England in 1923 to study Medicine, qualified in 1931, and ran a General Practice in County Durham for a few years before moving south in 1936. His interest in photography had started around 1933, with a folding Ensign camera, and by entry to various competitions he won some prize money which enabled him to upgrade to a Leica. He was a leading member of the Leica Postal Portfolio which started in 1936. Around that time he met W G Morris, F L Lee and others and together they decided to resuscitate the Twickenham Photographic Society - an event which occurred in 1938. He became a Member of the Royal Photographic Society before the War in 1938, achieved his Associateship in 1939 and his Fellowship in 1940. He was among the first UK amateurs to use the Kodacolor process - this had been introduced to the American market in 1942 but did not become available in Great Britain until 1958.
