The Spartus 35 and 35F cameras were sold from 1947-1954, and were manufactured by Spartus and then the Herold Manufacturing Co. in Chicago. Produced in the post-war photography boom, the Spartus 35 sold for about $12.00 - $29.00 depending on the model and the year. Lenses are inconsistent in results, and the cheap construction, rough finish, and lack of accurate control make them definite candidates for the Low-Fi camera selection.


I found this in a box that held old family belongings. They are not worth anything, but make a nice conversation piece for the bookshelf.

I love old cameras - I still have my first camera I got in the early 60's -
