I found this camera in a $5 bargain box from an auction. I don't know anything about antiques or even if they are antique yet but this is a start to my little collection.

Great camera! We have the same one. It originally belonged to my wife's father...

Looks beautiful.
In reviewing my library of Kodak camera catalogues, this specific model of the Pocket Kodak was listed from 1927 to 1931. The No.1 (6 exposures of 2-1/4" x 3-1/4" images) with Anastigmat lens sold for $17.00. The No.1A (12 exposures of 2-1/2" x 4-1/4" images) with the same lens sold for $18.00. You can figure out if this is a No.1 or No.1A by opening the back and looking for the information inside.
The body leather was also available in different colors such as blue, brown, gray and green with matching cases.
The stylus on the side of the shutter is for autographic film (ability to write information on the edge of the negative while in the camera).
Thank you for the feedback on my camera.
Linsan, you bought a great box for 5! Nice camera :-)
Fantastic informations, Rniederman!
Think this can be marked as solved :-)
HI
Very nice Kodak, I love these old cameras, desing and technic's.
Have also some old Kodak's.
To check the light qualities of the bellows and to look for leaks, take into a darkened room, extend the bellows and shine a torchlight up and see if light escapes throu any holes.
