john_shriver Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I presume that you are talking about the number 3 size slip-on Portrait Attachment? These attachments fit a wide variety of Kodak cameras. Well, at least the ones that had a projecting lens, they wouldn't fit a box Brownie. The best source of information is the Kodak annual catalogs of the era. For instance, the 1929 catalog (which can be found at Michael Butkus Jr's site, http://www.butkus.org/chinon/index.html), shows the Number 3 size as fitting: No. 1A Pocket Kodak, Single lens No. 1 Pocket Kodak Series II No. 1A Pocket Kodak Series II, Single lens No. 1 Kodak Series III with Kodak Anasigmat f.6.3 The Hawkeye in that catalog takes Number 1 size (No. 2 Hawkeye, Model C, Single lens). But you will only see the reasonably current cameras in any particular Kodak catalog. If you really want to use this type of filter, you need to get the manual for your camera (for the right model, size, and lens version), and see what filter was called for. But it's much more practical to use the next generation, where the filters were in Series sizes, and you just bought the right slip-on or screw-in adapter.
