Instagame 4 : Kodak Instamatic 104 camera - from USA
The camera was introduced in 1965 in the USA . Early advertisements and manuals show an uncovered flashcube release button on the front (see upper picture) . Soon afterwards , apparently in 1966, the button was provided with a 'hood' . Maybe the unprotected button led too often to unintended release of the flashcube . The ad on the left from a Dutch photomagazine published in 1966 show both versions on the same page .
