You’ve come a long way, Mr. Kodak
I’ve got several old cameras sitting around my office. Most have some family history attached to them in one way or another.
This capture is of one of the cameras, a Kodak Brownie Flash Six-20. My father received this as a graduation gift in 1950 from his grandparents. As a child, I was allowed to use this camera and I shot many rolls of film through it. It’s one of the first cameras that I remember using. Given the primitive camera and my inexperience, the resulting images were hideous. But y’know, I sure wish I had those photos today.
