Ansco Shur-Flash

 

The Ansco Corporation (later to become Henry Fonda's favorite film company - The General Anilid and Film Company of Binghamton, New York - mercifully shortened to GAF) was a prodigious manufacturer of cameras through most of the twentieth century, mainly on the strength of snapshooters like this one.

 

Not a spectacular camera, but it uses 120 film, (a plus) and still works after all these years. Don't laugh. If you received a Remington Hot Comb as a Christmas gift in 1968, where do you suppose that worthless pile of wire and plastic is about now?
