The listing, (Vintage) Foldex 20 camera 1950's (Working) has ended.
I have seen these sold between 50 to 100 dollars weight is 24.40 OZ. without case and 29.05 OZ with case If you lived in the 50s and 60s, you likely have owned or knew someone who owned a Foldex 20 camera, or a similar model, that had the big flash attachment and opened up so that the lens moved forward on a folding bellows. This amazing folding camera was manufactured in the Chicago area by Pho-Tak Corporation. Pho-Tak was just one of several news companies in the 50s who made and sold camera models in Chicago, New England, and NY. They also made Scout 120 Flash for the Boy Scouts of America and a single box camera named the Traveler 120. It used 120 film whereas the Foldex uses both the 120 and the 620 film. The resulting photos are 3 1/4 x 2 1/4 inches. The camera is black with aluminum dials, etc. Did you notice that the camera folds together, making it an early version of today's "compact" cameras. Funny huh ...Anyway this will be a nice collection peice for collectors or photographers ..as i know the camera is in very good shape other than a couple scuffs on the back the bellows is still together with hardley no wear and camera still works, the case with it has came apart in 2 places but does not take away the beauty ......(THIS ITEM HAS FREE SHIPPING WITH TRACKING) please only verified Listians bid and remember you can bid with confidence on all my auctions
