Got this on ebay, hasn't arrived yet, but when I found out it was made
by Bilora for Sears, went for it:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=290211011971&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=019
The Ebay button doesn't take you to the link for some reason... |

Hope so Larry, will take a better pic of it when it arrives. Got a bunch
of 120 film I want to shoot up! Everything outside is still pretty much a
study in browns and grays right now, looking forward to the greens and
the flowers! |

Arrived today, and all it needs is a little cleaning and the red plastic
thingy over the frame counter needs to be reglued:
I don't think you can go much cheaper to get into 6x9.

Thanks, Poilu and Richard!
Yes, I'm quite happy with this purchase which was only $14.30 with
shipping!
I should've taken a pic of the top of the camera that has what looks like
two terminals for flash. Also, the adjustment plate on the front that reads
"B" and "I"--wonder if that is for one flash and both flashes going off(?)
