This camera is special rendition of the No. 1A Pocket Kodak Junior Camera. The camera has a simple shutter with T & I setting and shutter is working.   Camera is covered with brown genuine leather and decorated with an enameled metal inlay on the front door as well as a matching metal faceplate on the shutter.  (It could be called ART-DECO DESIGN).    The case for the camera is cedar box which has a top plate that has repeated the art-deco design of the camera.     Now the camera has black bellows which is in excellent condition and I see no holes or defects.  The camera body covering is excellent but does some minor wear along the edges and bottom right cover. (I feel this can be cleaned without any problems)  The only issue with this camera is somebody has professionally engraved the original owner’s name of the front face plate of the camera.  The name is “Mrs. L.H. SHAW” and this is the way I received the camera.   Case for this camera is Excellent and is the best part of this camera.  I know this cedar boxes are very hard to find and can bring at times over $500 just for the box only.   Overall condition of this outfit (Camera & Case) is Very Good to Excellent (Except with engraving on front plate) and makes great addition to one Kodak Camera Collection.   It should be noted that I am not going to give this camera away so serious buyers/collectors only. Approx weight of this outfit is 5 lbs. and insurance is required.       Please read this auction carefully and ask questions before bidding.   This item is Sold "AS-IS", which means no refunds.            Shipping Costs: Shipped to anywhere in the USA for $25.00.
