Taken with a Voigtlander Perkeo 127 rollfilm camera in week 67 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

This is quite a rare model, it takes 16 photos on 127 rollfilm, it was made in the early 1930s, but the shutter still works smoothly on all speeds. It's very small when folded, and can be pre-focused before opening. I last used it 20 years ago.

 

 

The first year is documented in this book:
