A plastic 120 film camera.

It's cheap.

Auctions, yard sales, etc.  There's one available on the eBay auction
(http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=18761049).

They are collector items, so they'll set you back $40-$65.

Absolutely!  Send it to me and I'll get you one. <g>

The Holga is the "modern day" equivalent - cost about $20.  I have some Holga
shots on my Web page in case you are interested
(http://www2.ari.net/glsmyth/toy.htm).
