The Boy Scouts of America Camera was manufactured by the Imperial Camera Corporation of Chicago Illinois in circa 1961. This snap shot camera was constructed of plastic with a molded in eye level view finder and an integrated flash unit. It featured a fixed focus lens, a simple instantaneous shutter, plus two aperture settings to accommodate color or black and white film, and a carrying strap. It used number 127 roll film and AG-1 flash bulbs, sometimes called "jelly bean" bulbs. The flash unit was powered by two AA batteries stored in the camera behind the reflector and accessed with a “common” screw driver. This same design was also sold as the Imperial Lark 127, Rambler Flash camera, and the Tower Pixie 127 by Sears. The only change was the face plate surrounding the lens and film selector.
