Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! A Collection of Eight Vintage Kodak Cameras Including Duaflex, Instamatic, and Brownie Models
A collection of eight vintage cameras manufactured by the Eastman Kodak Company of Rochester, New York. This diverse group represents various film formats and camera designs from the mid-20th century to the late 1970s. The lot includes a Kodak Automatic 35 camera equipped with a Kodak Ektanar 44mm f/2.8 lens and a Synchro 80 shutter, accompanied by a two-piece brown leather half-case. Also present is a Kodak Instamatic 814 camera for 126 cartridge film, featuring a Kodak Ektar 38mm f/2.8 lens and housed in a dedicated black hard-shell case with a red felt-lined interior. The medium format selection includes a black Bakelite Brownie Hawkeye Flash Model and a Brownie Reflex Synchro Model for 127 roll film with a large top-down brilliant viewfinder. The collection is further comprised of three Duaflex series cameras: a Duaflex III with an adjustable aperture lens (f/8 to f/16), a standard black Duaflex II with a fixed-focus Kodet lens, and a two-tone brown and tan Duaflex II equipped with a Kodalite flash unit and polished silver-tone reflector. A slim Kodak Pocket Instamatic 20 for 110 cartridge film completes the group.
