The Victor Vest (ビクターベスト) is a Japanese camera, about which almost nothing is known. It is only mentioned in the official list of set prices compiled in October 1940 and published in January 1941.[1] The camera is placed in the same price category as the Baby Minolta and Sakura, at ¥10. This, together with the name Victor Vest, suggests that the camera is 4×6.5 format. It was perhaps related to the Victor folders, made by Motodori.
