Hello:
I'm looking for information on the Rolls Camera Manufacturing Company and the cameras they made. I know that prior to WWII, they produced a BAKELITE 127 viewfinder camera and the company seems to have disappeared by 1941.
I have a SUPER ROLLS 35mm viewfinder camera and can find zero information on it. Perhaps the most interesting thing is that the camera has a (I believe) hand finished solid aluminum body.
My thought is they may have tried to resurrect the company after WWII and instead of the cheapie BAKELITE went for the "high-end" with their SUPER ROLLS 35mm. They obviously failed
Any information much appreciated. Thanks.
