Hello all
I've joined this thread to find out about my little petite camera, it's also a lighter blue in colour, not sure how to upload a photo, it was left in my grandads house. My kids have asked to play with it but I wanted to know if they are if any value before I let them play with it.. it seems pretty robust and is empty of fluid for lighting.. but it's a very small cute, possible a collector's item 🤔

You will now see an 'add image to post' button, you can upload it from your device. click on REPLY button top right, not quick reply - that doesn't have the option of adding a picture |

If yes, it's likely worth $100 - $200. Unfortunately they use 127 size film, instead of film size that is currently in production. |

Its possible to cut 120 to 127. I can post a tutorial if wanted. |

I can post a tutorial if wanted. Yes, there are a few people/small companies that cut down some films and respool them, but film choices are very limited, and the cost is definitely high. Yes, I know that I could cut down film myself, but I'd prefer to stick with sizes available from film manufacturers. But I must admit that there are some very interesting 127 cameras about. |

The OP says it is also a lighter. It sounds as if it is the subminiature camera that was combined with a cigarette lighter in about 1950. If it is a PETIE with one T then it has considerable value.
