    Kodak Brownie Six-20 Model D – Beauty is box

    March 2, 2018 /

    Box cameras are without a single doubt the longest line of a particular type of camera ever produced.  It can be argued that they ran for 140 years, possibly longer depending on how loose the interpretation is.  There is even a new one being produced now in 2018!

In the wild, this camera brings out comments from “Isn’t that so cute!!” to “That is a beautiful camera”.  Make no mistake though, this is not a high-end camera, but a camera aimed at the lower end of the market, but Italian products seem to have a very sophisticated look to them. Box cameras have featured here before, including the Ensign Ful-Vue (another gorgeous…
