A vintage camera

Rummaging at a friends place, I found this little gem. It reminded me of how, as a teenager, I strolled the streets of Stockholm, taking snaps with a similar camera. It is a Kodak Brownie Holiday camera, made from 1953 to 1962 in several different models. It is very simple and useful only for black-and-white film and good lighting. The film size used is called 127. Very few manufacturers make this size nowadays, and it is hard to find a supplier. So I would say this is a collectible rather than a camera for practical use. But it still works.
