      Looks like a box camera. I am not a camera guy, more of a photo collector. MOST box cameras don't command very much when it comes to price.

      What is on the label?

      Why do you need a certificate of authenticity?

      I'm traveling for the next couple months and don't have access to my camera reference material to share more detailed information. However, there were a limited number of Kodak Rainbow Hawk-eye box cameras created with special promotions. These promotions often had foil stamped graphics on the camera sides as this one does.

      The picture is a bit blurry but the graphic looks like the "Fox's Silver Anniversary - 1905 - 1930" on a black leatherette body. I've seen other examples with a red leatherette body. Anyhow, it's uncommon. Unfortunately your camera is only in fair condition.
