Kodak No. 2 Folding Model B, in good physical condition and tested and working.
Description from the seller
In this listing a classic, sturdy and fascinating vintage medium-format folding camera: the No. 2 Folding Cartridge Hawk-Eye Model B, produced in the United States by Eastman Kodak Co. in Rochester, New York, during the 1920s.
The lot is presented in good overall condition, with normal signs of use and conservation perfectly coherent with the object's age, and it is complete with its original optical block mounted on an extendable rail.
Optics: The camera carries its original lens; the lenses appear in good overall visual condition, free of deep scratches and characterized by a light and pervasive vintage patina that attests to its centennial authenticity.
Mechanical: The lot appears mechanically functional. The integrated mechanical shutter responds correctly to manual commands via the corresponding lever, firing regularly at the set speeds.
Aesthetics: Good general condition, as clearly documented by the photographs. The body preserves its original black faux-leather covering with elegant geometric textures impressed in relief along the edges of the shell. It shows the classic signs of time, light surface scratches and a historical patina along the outer metal profiles.
International tracked shipping, fully insured and professionally super-protective packaging to ensure maximum safety during transport.
