This list is inaccurate and incomplete. Typically, these cameras were very simple and specifics were never listed by the manufacturer. Since so many styles and types were made, it is impossible to list them all. If you are able to provide more accurate information than is listed here, please contact us.

The Cadet disc 100 is a Memo Disc HR 10 (below) with a hot shoe instead of a flip-flash connection -- and in snappy colors like blue, yellow and red. The Cadet was so inexpensive that there were also many promotional Cadet disc 100 cameras made, such as the Cadet disc 100 with "Budweiser" on it , the Coca-Cola Cadet, and the Cadet 100 with " Beefeater Gin" on it. A special hot-shot flash, the Ansco-lite F20, was available.
