---> Very rare Pink/Rose Kodak 2A BEAU BROWNIE 116 Box Camera & Case - Art DecoPlease review ALL photos in detail. The camera and case in the photos is exactly what you will receive. It will be shipped very well in multiple layers of bubble wrap and cardboard.... (Check my reviews regarding packing)
The camera itself is in excellent working condition. The front metal plate with the pink and rose enamel is in excellent condition with no visible chips to the enamel. The bezel around the edge of the metal plate has some paints spots missing. The pink colored "leatherette" around the rest of the outside is in good shape with no missing pieces or tear. May need a good cleaning though. The top handle is missing, which is apparently common given it's poor quality and design. When the 2 latches are moved, and the winder turned a bit, the camera comes apart in 2 pieces in order to load the film. The inside is in excellent condition. The case is for a Brownie 2A, as marked. The hinged portions of the lid are intact, but not too sturdy. I recommend supporting the lid fully when open and not letting it just 'flap' open. The handle on the top lid of the case has a broken piece, but the strap is intact.
