- Description
- Black hard-shelled leather, No.2 Folding Autographic Brownie Kodak camera. The front panel is released by slide a metal switch open, which also acts as the stand for the camera. When opened it reveals the lens, black leather bellows, and focal range on the right side. The lens locks into one of two spots on the focal range meter, with a small lever on the side of the lens. On top of the lens is the viewfinder which can be pushed to the side, for portrait or landscape. The lens is marked with a lot of text, shutter speed on top and aperture underneath (which includes the type of scenario for each aperture), such as “PORTRAIT 4” “NEAR VIEW” “AVERAGE VIEW 8” “DISTANT VIEW 16” “MARINE 32” “CLOUDS 64”. Along the edge of the lens text reads “KODAK BALL BEARING SHUTTER”. Underneath the lens reads, “NO. 2 FOLDING” “AUTOGRAPHIC” “BROWNIE”. To load the film, when the front panel is closed there is longer metal bar that can slid to the right that releases the main part of the camera, which can be taken out fully. Inside the camera is a few pieces of tape. Along the edges of the camera are different dates for patents. On the right side of the camera is a leather handle, which reads “No. 2 FOLDING AUTOGRAPHIC BROWNIE”, and a silver ‘key’ to reel the film. The back of the camera features a metal bar on a hinge that reads “USE AUTOGRAPHIC FILM” “NO. A-120” and a art-deco decorated stylus above, this reveals a part of the film to be autographed. There is also an orange circle to view the film inside.
