Chronology of cameras Imperial Camera Corporation 

 

Traduction de Sylvain Halgand

From 1961, the company Herbert George Co. took the name of Imperial Camera Corp. This camera is thus posterior at this year.
It is about one 127 made with gray plastic.Common in USA, untraceable to France. Nothing to add !

Imperial Camera Corporation Delta 127



__________

Starting in 1961, the Herbert George company was succeeded by Imperial. The cameras produced by the new brand continued in the same vein as those of Herbert George.

According to the patent application dates, Imperial remained active until the early 1980s but increasingly shifted production to Asia.

The patents filed by Imperial Camera Corp. list George Irwin as the inventor, who had already worked for Herbert George in the latter half of the 1950s. The illustrations accompanying the patent applications correspond to Herbert George or Imperial cameras and accessories.
