Hi,
I made a looooooooong post in spanish about this with history and details in our local photo club forum.
Long story made short, I got for my camera museum a 1947 Toko Mighty miniature camera. These are usually called Spy cameras. I doubt they saw spy work, but who knows. These were more novelty than serious photo gear.
It is missing the shutter knob and the name label around the lens. But those are purely cosmetic. It is 100% functional including both shutter speeds (Instantaneous and Bulb) and all 3 apertures (F4.5 / f6.3 / f8)
All my lightbox pics are with the K100DS - M50 f1.4 - f22 - 1/180s
How I got it
How big it is....
Beep Beep, COMING THRU! On its way to the restoration shop! Yes, it's a Hot Wheels, no, not my kids' but MINE. You have a problem with that?

AAARGGGGGGHHHHH! The K1000 is going to eat it!
Here is a link to my camera museum if anyone is interested. It is in spanish but I plan to (someday) make a mirror copy and translate it. Not a google translation but to actually sit down and re-write it in english. Someday.....
Museo de Cámaras Antiguas
Thanks,
