The Kodak Brownie Hawkeye is probably the "classic" box camera of the 1950s. Manufactured from 1949 through 1961, the Brownie Hawkeye featured a molded Bakelite body, brilliant viewfinder, a rotary shutter and a Meniscus single element lens that was in focus from 5 feet to infinity.
When this camera came out it only cost $ 5.50.

    What a great camera,and we called them "baby brownie hawk eye's ",or was it just us that added the "Baby part?" It looks like you have the complete accessories.

    My mother took every picture with one of these until about 4 years ago.
    She still has it!
