The Fleetwood miniature camera was manufactured by the Monarch manufacturing company in circa 1939. This was the cheapest camera made by Monarch providing sellers the most profit. It was listed in the catalog as model no. 25 and referred to as the Fleetwood Junior. Like the other candid cameras, it was constructed of black plastic bakelite with a built-in optical view finder. It was fitted with a high speed Graf meniscus 50mm lens and a time and snap-shot shutter. The camera was capable of capturing sixteen exposures on no. 127 or A8 film. Its original list price was only $1.00.
