Just recently picked up a Tower 22 with the Tower 35mm f2.5 lens from an estate sale. Just wish these cameras came with a cold shoe to put my meter on. But thank you for the video! Super informative since I’m not as familiar with Pentax history!
When did Pentax start selling in the US & then did Sears stop selling their Tower brand? Wow, you have a very impressive collection. Look forward to seeing more!
I believe the Tower 29 was the last Tower branded Pentax SLR, which is the rare Pentax Model S. I'm going to assume this is when their exclusive contract with Sears ended and they started selling them through "Honywell Pentax"
I love the pre-Spotmatic Pentax cameras and lenses.

My dad had one of those Pentax cameras!
It would be nice to see any pictures that you've taken with those cameras Steph
Yeah I need to start adding images taken with the camera in the video!
