Lot Essay

The focal-plane Expo police camera was advertised for a very brief period. This is the only known example. The original sold for $7.50 rather than the $5.00 for the ordinary model which may explains its apparent rarity. The camera features a rotating waistlevel level and a slightly different body construction.
