The Brownie Hawkeye was made of Bakelite.
The Flash Models were made between
September 1950 to July 1961.
Has flash sync attachment sockets on side
Takes 6x6cm images on 620 film,

Very nice condition. Untested.
Kodak used a system whereby the manufacture date
of each camera can be ascertained.
If one removes the back of the camera to
examine the underside, where the exposed film
spools go, one spots four letters printed in silver.
These letters correspond to dates,
using Kodak's code word "CAMEROSITY":
