Galter Products was a Chicago, USA company formed in 1950 by Jack Galter, formerly president of Spartus. Almost all the models from this firm seem to be continuations of earlier Spartus cameras, which in turn had often originated with Utility Manufacturing Company of New York. These included the Spartus Press Flash and different versions of the Falcon Miniature. The names Majestic, Pickwik and Regal were used on different models.[1]
