No. 2A Folding Autographic Brownie


Recommended Posts

I am currently searching for date specific information regarding the

No. 2A Folding Autographic Brownie. I am trying to determine which

lens and shutter combo would have been on a 1925 model year. Also,

did this model allow for a remote shutter cable installation on the

side of the shutter? All pic's on E-bay so far do not show one with

a shutter cable, but I am confident my grandmother's had this as an

option for her '25 model. Any help will be appreciated!!

According to my copy of McKeown's, all 2A FAB's had Kodex shutters in 1925. But it could have had a Meniscus, Rapid Rectilinear or Kodar f7.9 lens. Most probably had the Meniscus since it was the cheapest. I no longer have one of these cameras, but seem to remember there being a threaded hole for a cable release just below the shutter release lever.
