Fuji Photo Film Company’s Pet 35 was introduced in 1959. As best as we can tell, the Pet was only available in the home market. Few nice examples exist today and even fewer with their original leather case.
Here’s an example of a very popular camera for Fuji during the late 1950s and early 1960s.
A Pet 35 leather case in all of its 1950s glory!
The Pet 35 fits snugly into its leather case – the front does not detach so it always flops around (and weakens the crease).
One of the coolest logos around.
If you run across a nice Fuji Pet 35 don’t pass it by. They are very much a real 35mm camera with excellent qualities – a glass lens with selectable apertures and adjustable focus. We haven’t run a roll of film through it yet but it’s on our list.
Camera: Fujifilm FinePix S9900W
