Original U.S. WWII Era Kodak Six-20 Brownie Special With Applied US Army Air Forces Insignia by John W. French ASN: 31180128

Item Description

Original Item: Only One Available. The Kodak Six-20 Brownie Special is a sheet metal box camera made for 620 roll film by Kodak in the USA. Production ran from Sept 1938-Oct 1942 to a design by Walter Dorwin Teague. Initial price in the US was $4.00. The Brownie Special was replaced by the Kodak Six-20 Flash Brownie - which was virtually the same camera with the addition of flash sync.

The trapezoidal body had a curved back, an optical viewfinder on top, and a fold-out foot on one side for standing the camera in portrait format. The shutter release had a locking collar set around it.

The back side of the camera has the US Army Air Forces roundel above the name and service number of the Soldier who owned the camera; JOHN W. FRENCH 31180128. The camera is in lovely display condition though we have no way of testing its functionality and is being sold as a display item.

Ready for further research and display.
