new toy







My cousin found this tiny camera and gave it to me as a gift.
It was made in Occupied Japan in 1948. 
I . LOVE . IT . 
It is by far my favorite camera in my humble vintage collection!

To take pictures you just slide the little door on the back open and closed to let the preffered amount of light in. 
Unfortunately, film is extremely rare and I have no idea if it's even possible to develop it. 

But MAN! Isn't it great?!

very cool. So I had an idea come to me of something you could do for a photo series. Since you did drawings of Disney characters, you could do a photo series of disney characters, get some people like Mae, Elise, Molly, etc to model for you and dress up like different Disney characters and take their pictures. You could do like, Belle, Rapuzal, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and even do different versions of characters like Minnie and Mickey etc., That would be pretty cool.
