Herbert-George Company Official Girl Scout Camera with attached flash assembly. The medium format camera has a black and red plastic body with two small grey metal panels attached to the front printed with a red grid. One surrounds the view finder and the other, printed with the phrase "Official Girl Scout" and the Girl Scout log, is beneath the lens. A dial for advancing film and the shutter release button are tow red plastic features on the camera's left side. The back of the camera is black plastic with a grid pattern and has two small round plastic panes, one for the view finder and the other over the film chamber. The camera used 620 size film. The camera's flash, black plastic with a metal pan, is marked XM2-PLUS+. The camera has an attached black plastic strap attached at the top, behind the flash. The camera is very similar to the Herbert George Company's Imperial Debonair model, produced from the early 1950s to 1961.
