Brownie Box Cameras
At Brownie Box Cameras, collector Remy Steller traces the evolution of Kodak’s inexpensive box-shaped Brownie, from its introduction in 1900 to its final production year in 1962. Steller offers visitors everything from PDFs of user and service manuals to a biography of Kodak designer Walter Dorwin Teague. As is fitting for a site devoted to photography, every item is represented by a clean, sharp image, making it fun to browse the stunning variety of Brownies—the range of colors and designs is impressive for a box-shaped product. Don’t miss the page devoted to the special Brownie created for the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair.
