Vintage CRYSTAR CAMERA Mini Spy Camera with Original Leather Case 1960s. Estate find – so awesome! First introduced in the 1950s by the Japanese Tougodo factory, the original Hit camera has spanned dozens, maybe even hundreds of copies over the years. At barely two inches (50mm) across, these tiny cameras are amongst the most popular sub-miniatures to collect. The camera is in fair to good cosmetic condition, small scratches and spots on the metal. There are no broken parts, no dents, no damages. The mechanical parts are in functional condition. There has been no testing as to mechanical functionality of the camera. Comes in its original celluloid leather case.
