Chronology of cameras Ansco
As many Ansco cameras, the folding models of the brand have a code in their name indicating the negative format. The rest of the name is more random and is especially unreliable when reproduced by distributors.
Therefore, having an exhaustive list of folding models is a daunting task. Here is a draft of a list of folding cameras:

The "Junior" models are an economical alternative to a more sophisticated model. The most obvious difference is the lens support, which in the case of the Junior models does not allow for movements like lens tilting or shifting. Lenses and shutters might also differ, but this alone isn't a sufficient identification key.
Sometimes, French distributors refer to these models as "Pliant," referencing the term "Folding". There is no equivalent word in the original names of these cameras. __________
This designation doesn't quite match the actual name of the model at Ansco.
The same camera is found in the Photo-Plait catalog under the name Juniorette. In both instances, it seems to be the No. 1 Ansco Junior .
It's a metal folding camera used with 120 film, producing 6 x 9 cm negatives.
