This is properly known as a No.2A Brownie Model B. It shot 2-1/2 x 4-1/4 images on 116 roll film. These box Brownies were amazingly successful and over 2.1 million were sold from 1907 to 1921 (the camera was around in various forms through 1933).
Your Model B was introduced in October 1911 and was sold to about early 1924 (when the Model C was made).
Thank you for the information about the camera it was left to me by me father it means a lot to me ...
