	Kodak Brownies @ UCR/CMP - The Brownie Camera by Eaton S. Lothrop Jr. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		o be considered a 'landmark', a camera must be either one of an original design, or else one whose appearance on the scene marked the beginning of a noticeable change in the habits and procedures of the picture-taking public.
		And yet, between the initial distribution of Brownies to the dealers and the first mass sales to the public, a problem arose that necessitated a basic change in the structure of the camera.
		The new back of the Brownie camera, introduced in April of 1900, was a great improvement, and was employed on later models of the same size, as well as on subsequent Brownies of other sizes.

	Beginners Guide To Understanding And Using A Brownie Box Camera by Peter Lutz
		The operation of the Brownie can be likened to the operation of the human eye, with the camera lens resembling the eye's lens, the shutter resembling the eyelid, and the film resembling the retina.
		When using the "bulb" setting it was necessary for the Brownie to be placed on a firm surface to prevent it from being moved during the exposure and the shutter held open manually for the required length of time.
		The camera you are holding so lovingly in your hands was once cradled in the same way by another living person before you were born.

		The Kodak Brownie box camera, introduced in 1900, was a very simple camera that anyone could use.
		The camera was named after the popular cartoon characters depicted by Palmer Cox.
		The later version introduced in the 1950s, the Brownie 127, was a viewfinder camera made of Bakelite with a simple meniscus lens focussing onto a curved film plane that reduced the impact of the deficiencies in the lens.

	Kodak Brownies @ UCR/CMP - The Brownie Camera by Eaton S. Lothrop Jr. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		This camera, with built-in viewfinders, and using a size film eventually designated No. 120, was the beginning of the Brownie camera line.
		Advertising efforts for Brownies were always considerable, but in 1903 Kodak followed its successful 'Kodak Girl' campaign with 'The Boy With A Brownie', illustrations showing a young boy with such 'boyish' things as a kite or a fishing rod and, of course, a Brownie camera.
		These cameras bore the name of a camera, a boy who had a dog named Tige, created by Richard F. Outcault for the New York Herald in which the drawings first appeared in 1903.

	Brownie put photography within reach of masses - 05/26/00
		The Brownie was Kirkland's first "fantasy machine," a camera that, more than any other before the 1960s, captured the everyday world of the 20th century in pictures.
		The $1 Brownie produced by Eastman Kodak in 1900 changed the way Americans documented their family history.
		"I consider the Brownie the most important camera of the 20th century, just like the Model T is the most important automobile of the 20th century," said Todd Gustavson, curator of the technology collection at George Eastman House.

		This 35mm camera may have been made in 1952 but it produces images as sharp as anything you can buy today.
		This version of the "Bullet" camera line was produced from 1936 - 1942 and it made three wide narrow exposures on 127 roll film.
		The introduction of the brownie meant that photography had become a hobby that virtually anyone could afford.

	Brownie 2a Model b
		The Brownie 2a Model b originally used 116 film which is essentially todays 120 film, only that it was rolled onto a bigger spool.
		I also have a 620 Brownie Junior I've been playing with and using a simple modification it will work with a normal 120 roll.
		Be sure to put "brownie" in the subject line so it doesn't get thrown out with the junk mail.

		All of the cameras shown here are in working order (if you can find film for them...) I went through all my albums and I was able to find examples of contemporaneous photos that were taken by each of these cameras.
		It is an odd-looking, but strangely handsome camera due to the rotary shutter, which required a large hemisphere on the top of the camera.
		The camera has two "cold" flash shoes, meaning that a flash could be attached to the camera, but it could not be electronically synchronized with exposure of the film.

		The Box Brownie was a small box camera, made from jute board and wood, and sold for $1 in the United States.

		This Brownie camera went through several model changes and was still popular into the 1950's.

	Kodak Brownies @ UCR/CMP - The Brownie Camera by Eaton S. Lothrop Jr. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The original Brownie model, and to some extent its successor, represented the convergence of two types of cameras design of the mid and late 1890's.
		Such cameras were of a flimsy cardboard construction, had a box-type of back, and a shutter whose exposure speed was controlled by time used to move the lever, and had a lens of generally poor quality.
		There is indeed no doubt that the Brownie was intended as a successor to the Pocket Kodak in the Eastman Kodak line; in the year the Brownie was introduced, manufacture of the Pocket Kodak was discontinued.

		The old Kodak Brownie camera's looked so beautiful and simple that it was just a matter of days to decide that one day I wanted to have one of those.

		Before the Brownie, cameras and photography were left primarily to the professionals to deal with.
		The Brownie exploded upon the market and it was the Brownie that paved the way for the millions of point and shoot cameras that adorn the world today.
		The Box Brownies, through the ages, originally retailed between $1 and $5 USD, and because of this low, low price, millions were sold and I imagine that, although a large portion of these were thrown out or otherwise destroyed, there are still millions out there to be had.

	Kodak Brownie Hawkeye Flash Model
		The Kodak Brownie Hawkeye is probably the "classic" box camera of the 1950s.
		Manufactured from 1949 through 1961, the Brownie Hawkeye featured a molded Bakelite body, brilliant viewfinder, a rotary shutter and a Meniscus single element lens that was in focus from 5 feet to infinity.
		The good news is that neither trimming a 120 spool or respooling film onto a 620 spool is necessary when loading the Brownie Hawkeye as a 120 spool of film easily fits into the top (source) compartment of the camera.

		As the Brownie was to be "operated by any school boy or girl" the camera had to be durable and robust.
		This improved version of the Brownie camera went into history as the No.1 Brownie Camera, when later on in 1901, its legendary successor was introduced, which would carry the name No.2 Brownie.
		This camera, presented in October 1901, not only had these body improvements further refined, but an even more important factor contributing to its success, was the introduction of a new film format, the 120 rollfilm.

	BoxCameras.com - Eastman Kodak 1900-type (No. 1) Brownie Camera
		When Kodak introduced the $1.00 Brownie Camera in February of 1900, it was an immediate success, but with one problematic flaw - the shoebox-style, cardboard back wore out quite quickly, leaving the rollfilm inside more susceptible to light leaks.
		The Brownie Camera with its new back door design would go on to be known as the No. 1 Brownie Camera in 1901, when the larger No. 2 was introduced necessitating a new name and model designation.
		Although the camera is in "pretty good" condition (many Brownies were very well used by their young owners), it lacks the proper film winding key.

		In yet another example of serendipity, the Brownie camera, which brought the price of a Kodak camera down to a truly democratic dollar, was introduced in 1900, just as Coney Island was undergoing a postcard explosion.
		While the photographs on the Coney Island postcards were not, by and large, taken with Brownie cameras, they were nonetheless powerful emblems to their recipients, who saw for the first time how much fun photography could be.
