The Freeze Frame was written by A.Ager and the hardware produced and distributed by Evesham Micros (fomerly known as ...). There were several versions of the Freeze Frame from MK.I to MK.IIIB (which for better readability will go by MK1 to MK3B here avoiding roman numbers). The Freeze Frame series was later joined with the Lazer utility cartridge (released as MK.IV and Lazer) but quickly went to become Freeze Machine practically being MK.V and Lazer II. A different Freeze Frame cartridge is described and pictured on a lemon64 forum thread. The cartridge shown there is a hardcopy cartridge to dump the screen to an attached printer. From the same thread it reads that until Freeze Frame MK3B the cartridge came without reset button and only the Freeze button was present.
As of writing this there are only two ROMs available - check them here:
