Description from the seller

Offered: a Kodak Vest Pocket Hawk-Eye camera in red/pink. The camera is in a “reasonably good to good condition”.

The red/pink combination is also a special color variant from the series. Cameras with these specific colors come up on the market a little more often and remain highly sought after by collectors. The camera dates from the late 1920s and combines an elegant Art Deco design with a striking color scheme. The camera is a real showstopper and a chance that doesn’t come by very often — ideal for the discerning camera- or Art Deco collector.
The camera dates from the late 1920s and has an elegant Art Deco design. The camera is ideal for the camera- or Art Deco collector.

Condition:
Very nicely preserved with signs of use/age, appropriate for a piece over 100 years old. The color is exceptionally bright and uniform, especially given its age. The shutter operates on the two available settings T and I (1/50). However, a number of things are missing from the camera. The pins to pull the bellows in and out of the camera, the stop so the bellows aren’t extended too far, and the glass at the rear are missing. The diaphragm is adjustable in 4 settings. A nice “but not complete” collectible or decorative piece with character.
