Empire 120 Box Camera
Title
Empire 120 Box Camera
Description
This Empire 120 box camera is of very simple all-metal construction, and bears a mark from J.E. Mergott Co. of Newark, New Jersey. This company also made metal frames for handbags, which matches this camera's all-metal construction. This is an example of a relatively generic, cheap camera, allowing ordinary people to take pictures.
