The Spartus Co Flash was made by the Herold Products Company, INC. starting in 1960 and is a small Bakelite box camera for 127 films. The Co Flash has a built-in flash holder and reflector plus a brushed chrome faceplate. This camera was capable of capturing twelve jumbo 3 1/2 x 5-inch exposures on standard no. 127 roll film. It featured a 28 mm fixed focus lens with an aperture setting for color or black and white photos, and a built-in optical eye-level target-type viewfinder. A new bagged outfit included the camera with carrying cord attached, gadget bag carrying case, two batteries, four M-2 flashbulbs, one roll No. 127 film, free film certificate and an instruction book. The Spartus Co-Flash outfit retailed for $12.95 and only $9.95 for the camera without the gadget bag. The camera also has a machined film advance knob, flashbulb release lever, a screw down battery compartment behind the reflector for two AA batteries, a screw down film compartment, a red window in the back cover for looking at the numbers on the back of the installed film while advancing the film to the next frame, a tall shutter release button, a leaf shutter with a speed of 1/50 of a second, and an permanently attached carry strap.
