Loving this picture! I actually found this exact camera (with film still in it!) at a flea market and bought it for $20!

Interesting developments?

Is the film still in good quality? :)

To be safe I always check for film in a dark/near black room. I wound it up but I haven't found anyone who can develop it yet sadly

OMG I'm so envious!!

It was such a lucky find! I adore old cameras and damn near had a heart attack just staring at it XD I managed to talk him down to twenty from forty (since that was all I had on me)

did you get the film developed??

[lvsinsanity.livejournal.com]

Sadly no! I've searched around the city and the town I live in but since it's so old, I haven't yet. I'm hoping I can get a hold of someone in an art store in the city and see if they can.

What colour is the one you found? If it's the purple version I will be extremely jealous!

[lvsinsanity.livejournal.com]

Noo I wish it was! Purple is awesome! It's in black

Oooooh. Old cameras were so gorgeous. I'd love one of these.

Everything about this ad is gorgeous. The copy is well-written and persuasive without being over the top, the still lifes are brilliant, and I am SO IN LOVE with that purple camera!

Beautiful ad! Even the different kinds of type are lovely. And purple for the win! :)

My mom found a camera VERY similar to this in my grandfather's war things - he carried one around Europe during WWII. Not sure if it was Kodak or a European knock-off of the men's version. Took us awhile to figure out how to open his up, since there was a solid hinged cover over the section that pops out, box-camera style, and the shutter lever was hidden. Very cool!

Sold! I'll take one in each color.

There should be an iPhone cover that looks like that. I don't mean the camera case but the camera folded up.
