Old Para View Camera to restore

Here is an old Box Camera I wanted more for the store display then to sell, the bellows just need a little work but the wood is fantastic




I was glad to have a little helper with me

Vintage Camera Shop "The Camera Hut"

Ok, we finally have a place to call our own and it is so nice to set up all the cameras. We found a place in Bally Pa just before Jakes Flea Market. It's four days a week and it's always busy rain or shine.

We moved in at the end of January and are still doing some remodeling to make everything perfect but so far the response has been wonderful, people are buying and dropping off cameras to buy.

A new thing we started is transferring 8mm and VHS to DVD.

Girl Scout Brownie Camera and flash

Some one came into the shop to trade this in, I have seen the Boy Scout Brownie cameras but never the Girl Scouts. This one was with the original box. The strap was broken but still had a neat look to it.
This one is going into the camera series for YouTube.



  • Here is something I found on "The Brownie Camera Page"

New Camera Shop Now Opened

Happy to say we found a spot to set up near Barto Pa. It is close to our summer spot so it should work out GREAT. Still need to do some work on the set up but at least we are out of boxes.

Polaroid 360 Land Camera


Here is one of the classics, Part of a Polaroid series of cameras starting with the model 100 and each one adding more features as the number went up. This 360 was closer to the top of the line camera for its day and is still popular.

Zeiss Ikon Frontar Ikonette


I just picked this up last night at the auction for $11. Did not even realize this was a Zeiss. I think with a little clean up and TLC this will look great on the shelf.

Produced through 1929 to 1931 this was the pocket camera of its time.

Year End for Cameras and Camera Hunting

As 2012 is about to end in a week or so I just wanted to show some pictures of some of the nice cameras I found digging on boxes and getting up early to walk the Flea Market.

Take a look I hope you and enjoy and the plan for 2013 is to find some really neat stuff
