Cosmo Camera Seisakusho (コスモカメラ製作所, Kosumo Kamera Seisakusho) was a Japanese company, which certainly made the Cosmo 35 camera and its name variants the Micronta 35 and Rolex 35.
It was perhaps also the maker of the Elbowflex TLR and Elbow Six folder, as is indicated in an advertisement dated September 1955.[1] An earlier advertisement for the Elbowflex mentions Tōyō Seiki Kōgaku as the maker.[2] It thus seems that Cosmo Camera Seisakusho was the successor of Tōyō Seiki Kōgaku.
