History

The Halloh models firstly introduced c.1903 by Kamerawerk Dr.Krügener.

ICA Halloh 505/506 and 510/11 were dual concept cameras of 8x10.5cm format, produced between 1912-26 . 570 is a later model for PostCard format [2]

Several of Houghton's Ensign brand models were Dr.Krügener Halloh cameras.

ICA (International Camera A.G.) was formed in 1909 by merger of Hüttig AG in Dresden, Wünsche AG in Reick near Dresden, Kamerawerk Dr. Krügener in Frankfurt am Main, and Carl Zeiss Palmos AG in Jena.

ICA continued to produce some of the camera models of the partners before merger. ICA's extensive 1922 product list consisted of one hundred different camera models.

The ICA Halloh series was a continued models of Kamerawerk Dr. Krügener (Dr.Rudolf Krügener, Photochemisches Laboratorium und Fabrik photographischer Apparate Frankfurt-Bockenheim, founded 1888) after the merger.

The Krügener company produced lenses, photo chemicals and a vast range of camera models. Later Krügener was taken over and the factory closed. Only the names of Krügener models lived on in later ICA cameras like Halloh, Plaskop, Teddy, Trix and Trona.
