Not at all , it is a very common Sida camera (Kraftanski work)
you can see it in my wooden box maliutka / lilliput collection i show you some times ago.

I see. It actually looks more like Liliput, not like Malutka.
So can we say that Liliput was a copy of Sida?

Okynek,

I have seen these on eBay quite often REALLY cheap if you ever want to buy one, even as low as $30.

No I am not planning to buy Sida yet.
As I remember I use to collect Russian cameras
But I was surprised to know the origin of Liliput and Malutka.
I was thinking they was completely Russian creation. I was wrong
