The Falcon Minicam Senior 127 film camera was made in New York by the Utility Manufacturing Company. The 50mm Minivar lens and Instant/Time shutter were common features of many Falcon-branded cameras from the company.

In addition to the metal-bodied version shown at right, the Minicam Senior name was recycled for a bakelite model sold by Falcon Camera Co. of Chicago, a brand used by Spartus after its purchase of Utility Mfg.
