Funky retro compact decorated with red glass blobs, c.1955 by Evans Case Co..
Evans was based in North Attleboro, Massachussetts and ceased trading in 1960.
Opalescent mother of pearl tiles are inlayed across the top of this elegant 1950’s Elgin American compact. A Nouveau style pattern adorns the band of metal that wraps around the mother of pearl squares. The compact opens to reveal an ornate inset for a powder pad, with the company’s logo stamped in the center. This inset flips open by pressing a small button providing a spot for holding powder, or whatever else you’d like to use it for.
It appears that the original mirror may have been replaced, but I am not positive, and the compact closes tight, but the latch can be somewhat finicky. Overall the compact is in nice vintage condition, with only some minor abrasions on the back. This beautiful vintage compact measures 3” in diameter.
More compact version for light-travelling units,also features a .45 ACP backup firearm.

Hoje estava aqui refletindo nas enúmeras fotos que ja fiz com câmeras compactas. Logo "tratei" uma antiga, que adoro e coloquei aqui. [feita em Porto de Galinhas] Acredito que a câmera é 50% da fotografia pois os outros 50% está conosco.

Comparing the Canon IXUS 275 HS (built in 4.5-54.0mm zoom lens) v Canon EOS 600D with a budget (sub £70) Yongnuo 35mm prime lens...
The subject is a backlit (using a MiniSun LightPad - daylight balanced), etched, clear glass paperweight. That the angle and aspect ratio is very similar, is pure fluke!!! Honest! Both cameras were hand held. No tripod was harmed during this shoot LOL.
More interestingly, the IXUS recorded (EXIF) a focal length of 10.31mm (58.14mm equivalent), at ISO 200, aperture f4.5, and shutter speed 1/500, in P mode (there is no M mode). Whilst the EOS, with the prime 35mm lens (56mm equivalent), was ISO 200, aperture f2, and shutter speed 1/250, in M mode.
Whilst the result from the IXUS is a little harsh, with evidence of vignetting, it's a valiant effort from such a small camera with a tiny lens. Then again, with the EOS, the glass in a Chinese budget prime lens is hardly going to be exceptional.

After I showed you my Nikonos SB 105 here are two more things from my under water photography stuff I bought already. This is a normal diving lamp, but really small and powerfuel. Before this I got the larger brother "mini compact". But I will use this as a focus lamp and so it has to be light and small.
Strobist:
- 580 EXII cam right @ 1/1 shoot through soft box
- 430 EXII behind the lamp on the floor @ 1/8 shoot through diffusor
- triggered with phottix
Going through my 'man drawer' this afternoon and uncovering all sorts of things, including my most recent 3 cameras before the 550D. This Mju took some really fab photos back in the day of film ... think I bought it around 1998. I also had an old Pentax ME Super SLR camera that I used at university but sadly I don't know where it is any more.
My Sailor Moon compacts came in from J-list today! I’m currently working on a shadow box to display them in. They are super pretty in person but do have a few flaws, but hey what else would you expect for $3 gashapon toys.
The Sandugo was a blood compact, performed in the island of Bohol in the Philippines, between the Spanish explorer Miguel López de Legazpi and Datu Sikatuna the chieftain of Bohol on March 16, 1565, to seal their friendship as part of the tribal tradition. This is considered as the first treaty of friendship between the Spaniards and Filipinos. "Sandugo" is a Visayan word which means "one blood".
