Front of the box has an illustration of the camera in the top middle, with text surrounding that reads “UNIVEX PICTURES MAKE” “BEAUTIFUL ENLARGEMENTS”. Underneath the illustration in cursive text “Univex” and in regular text “A JEWEL OF A CAMERA” and in the bottom black stripe, “UNIVERSAL CAMERA CORPORATION” “MADE IN U.S.A.” “NEW YORK, N.Y.”. This is the same on the opposite side. Along the shorter side is more text “MODEL A” “Univex” “CAMERA”, a stamp that reads “UNIVERSAL CAMERA COMPANY HERMANT BLOG.

The camera is small with a long square lens, a metal wire range finder that lines up with the smaller range finder attached to the side of the camera. The shutter is one the side of the lens, fairly small. There is a metal knob to wind the film.
