MY FIRST EXPERIMENTS IN AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHY
I was ten years old when this second-hand box camera was given to me. It
was immediately taken apart. My excitement and curiosity about the function was
great. From a book in the school library I soon learned how to handle the
camera and how to develop and copy the photos. It was
all very primitive, but worthwhile and the start of a lifelong interest in
cameras and photography.
The camera is marked No 2 Brownie Mod F and made by Eastman Kodak
Rochester NY USA about 1930. It was made of aluminium with leatherette covering
and took 6x9 cm pictures on Kodak 120 film.
