   The Expo Watch  Camera  is the most  rtonderful  and ingenious  Camera  mad.e.
 It  is but a  little  larger  t,han a man's  watch,  which    it  closely resembies  in shape
 and  appearance.   You  can  carry  the  Expo  about   in  your  pocket  and  take
 pictures  without  anyone  being  the wiser.     It weighs  only  3 ounces.    ,It is loaded
 in  daylight  with  a  roll  fllm  of  either  10 or 20 exposures  costing  20 cents and
 30 cents respectively,  and thus  the  picture  taking  part  of a whole  day's outing
may  be had  for  a very  nominal  sum-z    cents  or  less a  picture.   The  size  of
 the photo  is about  the  size of a posta€ie stamp,  Ve x  7/einch,  equal  in clearness
 to any camera  regardless  of  price.  The  pictures  can be enlarged.  to  any  size.
 This may seem incredible   until  you  stop  to  consider  that  the moving  pictures
you see on the screen are merely  enlarg;ements  of  film no bigger  than  that  used
by  this  marvelous  Wa-tch Camera.   The  film  is the same as that  used by any
 other  camera,  the  only  difference  being  in  the  size.  The  fllm   is  developetl,
 printed  and. treated  the same as any  other  film.   You  can do  the  developing
 and  printing   yourself    if you  wish,  or have   it done  at your  drug  or
 photographic   supply  store, the same as your  other  fllms.
   Surprise  your  friends.   Take  their   picture   in  the  act  of  doing
some funny  stunt.   Next  time you see them,  produce  the  print.  You
 will  have a  lot  of fun  over  their  bewilderment   and. catching  people

lf price were always an indication of value,
we could  not recommend this camera as
nighly as we do.  In this particular instance,
the  unprecedented popularity  which  has
greeted  the  FOTH-DERBY  abroad,  has
enabled the maker  to speed production  to
the point where  it  is possible to offer this
precision camera at this price.
This instant and immediate response is due
to   its  extreme  compactness,  irreducible
weigi'lt, easy manipulation,  fine  optical
equipment, superb mechanical adjustments
and economy in operation.
 Its equipment  consists of  a High Speed
f :3.5 lens with  short  {2")   focal length,
permitting  considerable latitude  in setting
focusing  scale; a  focal plane shutter  of
extraordinarily' simple operation which may
be  set  to  any  variety  of  speeds up  to
l/5O0tn  part of a second; and a magnifying
tube-sight view-finder  of latest type which
shows  the  image  in  clear  enlarged form.
Due to the clarity and "detail"  of the fine
Foth Anastigmat  Lens, enlargements bear
all the actual distinguishing characteristics
of good negative prints.
