The simple bakelite camera with 50mm Graf lens was sold by Bernard Products of Chicago. It first began to appear in advertising sometime in 1945[1]. It had a collapsible metal frame viewfinder and a shutter with instant and time mode.

The faceplate of this camera (as well as other details) strongly resemble the Royal Reflex pseudo TLR sold by Monarch, simply turned 90° and with a folding frame viewfinder added.
