Lomo Camera-Diana


"Back in the 1960’s, a small firm in Hong Kong – the Great Wall Plastics Factory – created a dirt-cheap 120 camera called the “Diana.” Crafted entirely of plastic, each camera cost about a dollar. As a mainstream product, the Diana was pretty much a failure – and was discontinued in the 1970’s."

You lost your camera, but you have found something better. It's even named after you! I am sorry your purse is gone. I think I had a horrible nightmare about that once.
