Gold Camera Kōgyōsho (ゴールドカメラ工業所) was a Japanese company which sold toy cameras and toy projectors by mail order.^[1] It was perhaps called Kujaku-in Gold Camera Kōgyōsho (孔雀印ゴールドカメラ工業所) around 1942.^[2] In 1944, it sold the New Gold 4.5×6 folder, probably by mail order too. It is not known if it is related to the earlier Gold plate folders.
