A Victorian pocket watch<\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/07\/spy_camera_pocket_watch.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/>\n<p>Ask anyone when the first spy cameras appeared on the market and they might hazard a guess at the 1940s or 50s. In fact, this camera cunningly hidden in a pocket watch dates all the way back to <a href=\"http:\/\/watchismo.blogspot.co.uk\/2007\/05\/watchismo-times_10.html\">1886<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>Auctioned off at Bonham&#8217;s a few years ago, the tiny \u2018nickel plated, engine turned, hunter type pocket watch case&#8217; conceals six section telescopic lens tubes with internal meniscus lens and a front-mounted rotary shutter. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.geeksugar.com\/Vintage-Geek-Victorian-1886-Spy-Camera-Pocket-Watch-257715\">Bonham&#8217;s reportedly sold it for a cool \u00a318,000<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Steineck ABC Watch Camera<\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/07\/17156310_2_x.jpg\" width=\"500\" border=\"0\" \/>\n<p>This <a href=\"http:\/\/www.liveauctioneers.com\/item\/17156310_steineck-abc-watch-camera-serno217b-1949\">camera-in-a-watch<\/a> from Steineck was reportedly a big seller in the 40s and 50s, impressive when you consider that it didn&#8217;t work as a watch and the camera wasn&#8217;t exactly well hidden.<\/p>\n<p>An agent would apparently carefully aim the camera <a href=\"http:\/\/www.spymuseum.org\/exhibition-experiences\/about-the-collection\/collection-highlights\/steineck-abc-wristwatch-camera\/\">while pretending to check the time<\/a>. How they didn\u2018t end up with hundreds of shots of their own face is a secret best left with the espionage community.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Suzuki Echo 8<\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/07\/echo811.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/>\n<p>A gadget in true James Bond style, the Suzuki Echo 8 is a camera contained in a fully functioning cigarette lighter.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s perfectly possible to fill the Echo 8 with lighter fluid and spark up with it. However, it should be said that wise heads <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vintagephoto.tv\/echo8.shtml\">don&#8217;t exactly recommend it<\/a> due to the tendency of the lighter fluid to seep into the camera and cause the metal body to decompose. Still, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ebay.com\/sch\/sis.html?_nkw=Vintage1950s%20Suzuki%20Optical%20Echo%208%20Cigarette%20Lighter%20Spy%20Camera%20Echor%20F%2015mm&amp;_itemId=200837552015\">you can still pick one up on eBay if you have $1100 going spare<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>4. Secret button camera<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/07\/3348322585_6ee7cae5db.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><sup><em>Image via Flickr user <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/darri\/\">darri<\/a><\/em><\/sup><\/p>\n<p>Sadly not as clandestine as it sounds, effective operation of this button camera required the user to be wearing a very bulky coat, which probably wouldn&#8217;t look suspicious at all.<\/p>\n<p>Once the camera was in place, you&#8217;d operate it via a primitive cable release in the pocket. At the time this would have run your average CIA\/KGB agent the equivalent of about <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pimall.com\/nais\/pivintage\/firstbuttoncamera.html\">four months&#8217; pay<\/a> presumably not factoring in the additional cost of an enormous jacket.<\/p>\n<h2>5. Secret Book Camera<\/h2>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/07\/secret_book_cam.jpg\" width=\"506\" height=\"495\" border=\"0\" \/>\n<p>While this is reportedly a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pimall.com\/nais\/pivintage\/110bookcamera.html\">fairly old idea<\/a>, it recently got a fresh update from Fred Flare in the form of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cnet.com\/uk\/news\/camera-disguised-as-book-exposes-10-year-old-girl-in-all-of-us\/\">Secret Book Camera<\/a>. A 110 film-using camera cunningly concealed inside a plastic Russian novel, the Secret Book Camera is probably one of the most awkward things to admit that you own in polite company.<\/p>\n<p>Fred Flare are no longer in business for some reason.<\/p>\n<h2>6. The John Player Special<\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/keyassets.timeincuk.net\/inspirewp\/live\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2014\/07\/john_player_special.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/>\n<p>Yep, it&#8217;s what it looks like. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tennants.co.uk\/Catalogue\/Lots\/144368.aspx\">Someone disguised a camera as a pack of cigarettes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mbarel.webring.com\/jps.html\">It&#8217;s quite clever really<\/a>. The long extended \u2018cigarette&#8217; works as a wind handle and there&#8217;s a hidden button shutter release on top. There&#8217;s even space for a couple of real cigarettes, in case you need to keep up the charade for an extended period of time.<\/p>\n<p><em>Seen any we&#8217;ve missed?
