Ancient Magic Art Tools is a camera maker based in Lincoln, California, founded by Les Cookson. It makes camera obscuras and camera lucidas, mainly wooden original constructions and replica models, but also a cheap cardboard kit for 5 (!) camera obscuras for educational experimenting. The wooden cameras are made as real artists' drawing tools.
