Hello
i was wondering if someone can help me identify my Conway camera. I have been trawling the internet and have had no luck. Any help would be much appreciated. It almost looks like a Coronet "O.20" Box Camera, but again I am unsure.
The only reference to a 6x9 box camera given that I see there is..
Ambassador, Box camera produced from around 1955. 6 cm. x 9 cm. pictures on 120 film, built in green filter. In 1955 this camera cost £1 10s. 9d.
Does yours have the built in green filter? - maybe slides in front of the lens when you move a lever.
Another bit of info: camerapedia mentions French firm Tiranty working with Conway to market box cameras.
I've used these two sites before - your camera looks like the one listed as the Conway Standard. (Although Historic Camera doesn't show a model that looks exactly like yours.).
Apparently the Conway was made by Standard Camera Ltd. There seems to have been a connection between Standard and Coronet, but it doesn't seem clear what exactly the relationship was between the two companies.
