I've got my Dad's Argus C-3. Still works well and still takes great pictures. As a matter of fact I take better pictures with the old "brick" than I do with anything else.
Think of the advantages of a brick locomotive: No boiler washouts needed, no flue replacements, no cinders to get rid of, no 15-Year inspections...
I'll go quietly...
If you vist the Western Maryland Sceneic, be sure to go down the stairs at the far end of the platform where you will find a brick sculpture of the front of their steam loco and a WM caboose built into the wall.

That looks as good as the brick camera (Argus C-3) that I started out with many years ago.
How very British!

I tried to sell my two cents worth, but no one would give me a plug nickel for it.
I don't have a leg to stand on.
