I have an Argus 75 twin lens reflex camera (with detachable flash). I've looked on eBay, and I have seen similar cameras, but the ones I see there have the words "Seventy Five" on them. Mine has the NUMBER "75" on it.
Is my camera an older or newer model? Anyone?? Whoa...looks like we already have a Winner. It's still too early to choose a Best Answer!
