I have had this little gem for a very long time and never bothered to put a film through it until now. I loaded a roll of rearapan 127 400 film in it, I used Rodinal for a 1 hour stand development. All images came out, what a surprise I got for a 1938 simple camera with a plastic lens that cost $1.25 on launch. I also have the earlier Baby Brownie.

I like the old photograph feel of these images.
Great stuff Flack. I don't know how you do it. All your photographs are good. If I sent you out with a matchbox with a bit of film in it and a sheep's eye stuck to a hole in the side, you would come back with a good photograph.
These have a lovely feel about them.
I think the over-editing of these has killed the charm of this vintage camera and lens, especially the last image
Odd, I don't see them as being over-edited at all, apart from the ye rather twee olde worlde postcard border.
Indeed. To my mind, over-editing is an artefact of an over-critical eye
Ooh, I'm not at all sure that I agree with that. Over-editing is a scourge, a destroyer!Indeed. To my mind, over-editing is an artefact of an over-critical eye
Indeed, but calling out over-editing can be perceived as fact rather than opinion.
Do you mean opinion rather than fact?
When you say something is over-edited, you are only expressing an opinion. And that's a fact!
Something like that.
