Except for the loss of finish on the flash walls, the camera is in remarkably good vintage condition. No damage. The film turns through smoothly. I have film tested it and everything works fine.

Questions & Comments
How does this camera work? I'm very interested in bidding on this.
The old cameras were extremely simple. You load the film in it, take your picture, wind the forward to the next shot, and repeat, until the whole roll is finished. Take the finished roll out, take it to a photo processing place, they process it, make your prints, and it's all done. This camera uses 127 film, and best feature of it is...You can use Verichrome Pan film for black & white snapshots, Kodacolor film for color snapshots, or Ektachrome film for color slides. If you happen to be under 40 years old, you probably don't have a clue as to what I'm talking about. This is camera is from the early days of photography...when picture taking was truly PICTURE TAKING.....at it's simplist. You would most likely have to order film for this off the internet.....but it IS available.
No, I don't have any light bulbs for it, but they can be had off the internet....just like the film. It may be hard for the younger generation to believe, but there ARE some things a digital camera can't do. That's why all the old film cameras haven't completely disappeared.
