Is its performance as high quality as its grand appearance?
That is the most impressive Brick I have ever seen.

I wonder why that shape never really caught on. Quite an impressive brick though, isn't it.

A friend of mine found some scale brick emboss like they use in model railroading and put it on an Argus Brick. Looks pretty cool with bricks.

I knew an Argus collector who had so many C2s and C3s, he considered building a "brick wall" in his den. Not nearly enough, it turns out, and even at the going price around $5.00, it would have been too expensive. Neat idea, though. I like the embossed brick idea too. Surprisingly, at least one camera leather company makes brick kits.  www.cameraleather.com/argus/c3red.jpg |

The brick is like an old pick-up truck. Not pretty, and not elegant, but it gets the job done reliably.
What more do you want?
