These are fun little cameras. The Star series in particular is really neat, as well as the really simple brownie holiday flash.

It's amazing how many different cameras and formats Kodak released back in the day! This one was simple and easy to use. That's what most of the cameras were about. Thanks for watching!

I love these late 127 cameras. Have the Fiesta and Fiesta R4, as well the "off brand" Imperial Satellite. The final evolution of the box camera before 126 killed them all off.

I’m surprised Kodak sold this type of camera and not Instamatic 126 cameras with the Worlds Fair logo. The Worlds Fair showed what’s new and modern in the world, and to me, this camera was not! Haha - how many turns of the tiny film advance knob did you have to do? But thanks for showing us a fine example of this camera like you always do. Appreciate it!! 👍

You're so right, the Instamatics were out in 1963 and the newest thing! I think that this was just a less expensive camera that they could get people to buy as an impulse buy. The Instamatic cameras were more expensive in their day. Thanks for watching!

Awesome camera! Be interested to know how many promotional Kodak cameras were made for events and special fairs!

Not many. Aside from this one you had older pocket folding cameras branded for the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Girl Guides, and Camp Fire Girls. Then some more recent 110 cameras that had Disney branding like 101 Dalmatians, Lion King, and the famous Mickey-Matic. Those are the ones I know. 😁

@@LittleKodaks Not sure if you did not see that Kodak made cameras for the Olympics with Olympic branding, just been looking on ebay and etsy. With all the worlds fairs, 1933, 1939,, 1964-65, 1972, 1982 and 1984...been searching to see what might have been made if any! Great channel!

@@thissidetowardscreen4553 you’re right about the Olympics badging they put on the cameras too! I forgot about those. I even have the X-30 with an Olympics sticker in my collection. Lol

Not sure if you are still active on this video clip. I happened to find it since buying one of these Kodak worlds fair camera. I have actually bought two. Both flashes do not work though and can’t figure out why. Hoping to see if you had any advice. Thank you.

Do you know much about the New York World’s Fair Bullet Camera? I have one that was given to me by an older relative. The box states it was made by Eastman Kodak Co. in Rochester, NY with a picture size of 1 5/8 x 2 1/2 inches. There is a number on the box: 139-A.

Wow, that is a great camera to own. It's another 127 Film Camera. Yours is from 1939. It's a rare find. I wish I had one for my collection!

@@LittleKodaks Thanks for the info. I am looking to sell the camera, so if you are interested please message me directly.

Did you develop that roll of film after shooting it? I wonder if there was an old image on that first frame?

Hi, I haven't developed it. I'm pretty sure I would have ruined whatever was on there.

@@LittleKodaks Never say never. I discovered an old rool of 35mm at my grandma’s and got it developed. And guess what. Even though it was old. There were images on the negatives that came back from the lab.
