I found this beauty in an antique shop last year. The proprietor was selling it as a shelf queen. Check out that #Bakelite body and primitive styling! All I could tell is that the shutter still worked, so I bought it.

It takes the old 127 roll film format, but it's a half-frame camera. It shoots two tiny images in the space of a normal single exposure, giving you 16 photos instead of the normal 8.

Supposedly it's the same as the Acro Model V, circa 1940.
