Marusō K.K. (丸惣㈱) was a Japanese company. In 1939, it made the Hamond cameras, and its address was Tokyo, Kanda-ku Awaji-chō 1–1 (東京市神田区淡路町1–1).[1] The company is called "Marusō Kōgaku" in Lewis.[2]
In 1950, the Semi Ref or Maruso Refe is attributed by Kokusan kamera no rekishi to Marusō Kōgaku (丸惣光学) and by Sugiyama to Maruso Trading Co., that are probably related companies.[3]
In the mid 1960s, the Top 14×14mm subminiature camera is also attributed by McKeown to Maruso Trading Co.
