Vintage Simple Basic KODAK BOX CAMERA, Used 120 Film

Vintage Simple Basic KODAK BOX CAMERA, Used 120 Film - eBay (item 310118161526 end time Jan-27-09 18:30:00 PST)

This simple and basic vintage Kodak box camera has no model name or number. Perhaps it was on the original handle, but that's long gone. The film advance knob says, "Use Kodak Film 120." The back is embossed, "Use Kodak Film 120. Made in U.S.A. by Eastman Kodak Co., Rochester, N.Y." Look up an Anniversary camera and you see one very similar to this one.

A sticker inside says, "Use Kodak Film 120. Use Kodak film in the yellow box. It gets the Picture. Patented in U.S.A. 1,169,882 and 1,613,365. Printed in U.S.A. No. 40,984."

We made a handle out of a strip of rubber. The shutter works fast. The view windows are very tiny, dark and dim. The camera has marks and general edge wear.

4 Complete Sets 1977 STAR WARS CARDS in Original Box!

4 Complete Sets 1977 STAR WARS CARDS in Original Box! - eBay (item 310118654378 end time Jan-29-09 20:54:42 PST)

This vintage Topps Movie Photo Cards Bubble Gum box contains four complete sets of Star Wars trading cards--blue, red, yellow and green. The box is marked, "©1977 20th Century Fox Film Corp. All Rights Reserved." The stickers aren't here.

The cards were sorted into complete sets and wrapped in paper so long ago--32 years!--that the paper is getting foxed. The cards are pristine. The original box has tape inside the lid, is torn at the lid hinge, and has some bends.
