Description
Estate find, an Antique Kodak 3-A Folding Brownie Camera. It is missing the carry strap. The shutter and aperture both work, all speeds. The bellows look good, comes with one take-up wooden spool. The rear film window is intact. The lens looks good. The push button to open the lens board works BEST if you lean the camera forward while depressing the button, whereupon it will open ( see video) The lens piece is folded inside, I had to manually pull it out to line up the bottom piece to the 2 grooves on the drop bed. It was a little hard to initially pull it out, I did apply a little oil to the grooves to try to make it some out a little easier . The lens piece will lock into the distance scale. Unfortunately, you can no longer get film for this camera, but it makes neat display piece for the shelf. Sold as is
