This is a so-called Focus Free or Toy Camera, a simple plastic camera.
It's quite common and obviously robust, as there are still quite some
around for second hand sale. I has a flash and motorized film wind.
Obviously there was an autofocus version of it instead of the focus
free. Very uncommon, this camera claims to be made in USA.
Its
main features are:
38mm plastic lens, focus free
Shutter
~ 1/100
Double Exposure Prevention, flash, lens protection slider, motorized film
wind
Size 123 x 70 x 45, Weight 190 gr.
(240 with batteries)
Camera front closed. ISO slider, changes the aperture.

If you push the flash a little bit, it loads.
Film compartment.
These
are
the ultimate basics of a camera, focus free, single shutter speed and
fixed aperture. Point and shoot only. Film wind is not completely
automatic when you put a film. So pull the film leader to the end of the
compartment, there is a little mark. Close the camera and push the shutter
release twice. Now you are ready. It winds automatically.
If you choose the right film, ISO 400 in general and ISO 200 on very sunny
days, you can shoot outside photos that look OK. The rest will be "Lomo"
style,
but you can use flash for interior photos. The ISO switch provides you with a second aperture.
