This camera we picked up at the Peru IL antique mall. The antique mall has a bunch of different vendors and different cases with so many different items! They did actually have quite a bit of cameras

Nice find. Produced only from 1965-69. Original list price was $55.50
Thank you!! Have you ever used this camera? Shocked to see that's the equivalent of $390 in 2011 dollars!
Those years I was still under 10. I remember my dad had one of those Polaroids with the bellows and the little flash bulbs. The first Kodaks we got were the pocket cameras but I remember those flash cubes. - All the cameras in my collection are mostly Pentax models my uncle left to me in addition to an early Canon and some 1940's Leicas and Mercury II's. The only ones I have posted are the Mercurys, the Canon, and 2 models of the Pentax. I have not posted the Leicas or the other 2 models of the Pentax yet.
I bet it brings back great memories having those cameras!! It's a shame when people get rid of old artifacts of photographic history! I think it's great you held onto the ones from your uncle! :)
