Testing the little Waldorf Mini from the 1940's. It's bakelite and takes 127 roll film which is available from several suppliers if you do a Google search This tiny camera was one of many that were made with the same molds and given different face plates during the 1940's and early 50's. It's incredibly cute with a nice simple shutter, looks and functions very much like the Sprocket Rocket except a lot smaller. Hmmm, LSI, you listening? How about a 135 mini Sprocket Rocket that takes either 4x6 or square frames, mask included...C'mon, you know you want to make it for us! And please give us molded lugs for neck or wrist straps! :D

Nice album! It sounds like a neat little camera and it's good to know that my favorite b&w film comes in 127 too! ;-)

"And please give us molded lugs for neck or wrist straps! :D" You are so right!!!! I'd never though of this but I get so sick of humping my LSI cameras around in my pocket or hand...
