127 film has made something of a comeback and is now available to buy in the UK

Film loading is by a system which predates and predicts that used by Oscar Barnack in his first Leica cameras - the base lifts off (there is a small "Open" catch) and the film is then connected to its receiver spool and both spools and the film are slipped into place

Complete with original autographic stylus

Made in Rochester, USA

Lovely little thing
