Star System ⓘ

I use a star system to show Deco strength. Each camera is rated by how strongly it embodies Art Deco style, from iconic five-star classics to those with incidental Deco elements.

History

AGI (Aeronautical and General Instruments Co. of Croydon, England), a maker of instruments for military purposes, was founded in 1915. It made a military aerial reflex camera. After the war, British imports of optical goods were limited so in 1946 it was an attractive opportunity for AGI to found Agilux Ltd. It became a subsidiary to make cameras for the civilian market. The company abandoned camera production in the early 1960s. AGI still manufactures a wide range of instruments and systems for the Defence and Civil markets in Poole Dorset, England.
