This is an old camera my grandfather gave me. I know absolutely nothing about it and he really doesn't know much about it either. Here are some terrible cell phone pictures:

Is it a 127 film camera? Wikipedia says it made a comeback in the 50's as being inexpensive. My grandfather came to the US in the early 60's, so maybe that makes sense?

The only markings on it that i can find are the ones on the front which seem to say "Pilmir Camera" or "Filmir Camera" maybe, and under that it says "Made in Italy"

The Entire thing has a black wrinkle type finish.
Anybody have any idea what it is? I couldn't find anything so far.
Any help is appreciated!
