Walked past my local camera store yesterday, was looking at some Fuji gear but in the corner of the window display i saw this for £30.

Kodak Autographic 1A Junior, the front of the camera has 2 dates, 1910 and 1915...Google says the camera was first launched in 1914, so I am guessing this one is dated 1915. It has a ball bearing shutter which dates it definitely before 1923. https://camerapedia.fandom.com/wiki/No._1A_Autographic_Kodak_Junior

Even if this doesn't work, it looks so cool. Apparently I can get an adaptor and use 120 film.

The mechanism still work to fold back up. The Stylus is still there!

I also have the original leather case (THICK leather) and manual.

Size wise, it's about the size of an ipad Mini.
