The Brenda Starr Cub Reporter camera was marketed by the Seymour Products company of Chicago Illinois in circa 1940. Brenda Starr was a popular comic strip that depicted a glamorous, adventurous female reporter. The Brenda Starr camera was a basic miniature candid camera, constructed of black plastic Bakelite with a built-in eye-level view finder and fitted with a decorative metal face plate depicting the Brenda Starr name. It featured a fixed focus Graf meniscus lens and simple shutter providing snap shot and time exposures. This miniature camera was capable of producing sixteen photos 3 x 4 cm in size on no. 127 or A8 roll film. This camera design was part of the Chicago Common Style of cameras. This Style was the most common and originates from Jack Galter's 1939 US camera patent #114,324. This camera is nearly identical to the Dick Tracycamera by Seymour and many others.
