Short photo-story about Kodak Vest Pocket Special I've got at a huge expense of 1 EUR and restored to perfectly working condition:
Original tick seal leather has gone, a lot of corrosion on aluminium cast body:
"Kodak" plate a bit rusty but still keeps its glory
Original film spool for film type 127 (8!!! frames 6.5x4 cm)
List of patents inside the camera:
Exposimeter below the front lens:)
Side by side with Olympus OM-1:
Back side. T-shaped door to write comments on a back of film protective paper (Exif prototype :)):
With new leather coat:
Actually lens itself (Anastigmat 85/5.6) is very interesting. Front glass can be unscrewed converting anastigmat to a monocle.
Some pictures taken with the camera:
Youghal, Co. Cork, Ireland

Rear lens glass mounted on my digital Canon 40D
works very well as a dreamy monocle:
