The Argus

The Argus iHorn is made from an Argus C3 Cintar camera.   The flash housing serves as the bell.  The Argus C3 is a metal frame camera wrapped in pseudo-leather bakelite.  It was made between 1939 and 1957 in Ann Arbor, Michigan.  It shot 35 mm film.  It was probably the single largest-selling non-single-use 35mm camera in history.  Over 2 million were sold during its lifetime, with its size and shape earning it the nickname of “the Brick.”  Like all cameras, The Argus iHorn is a snapshot in time.
