AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid Kodak Eastman No. 4 Cartridge Camera Model E, one of the most iconic bellows cameras produced by Eastman Kodak between the late 19th century and the early 20th century. The model was marketed between 1897 and 1907 and is today highly sought after by collectors of historical photography.
This version is particularly interesting because it features an original red leather bellows, a variant decidedly less common compared to the more widespread black or brown bellows, which makes it even more fascinating and exclusive for a collection.
