Product code: Kodak Junior Six-20 Folding deals Camera With Kodak Doublet Lens Vintage From The 1930s

The Kodak Junior Six-20 Folding Camera was manufactured in the 1930's. This camera appears to be Kodak's first in a series of Folding Junior Six-20 cameras. The camera deals features include shutter speed slide, aperture slide, shutter release lever, folding viewfinder for portrait or landscape, film winding knob, cable release socket, tripod socket, platform support/lock, hinged back with ruby window, camera back latch, film take up spool, and strap. The cameras is in very good condition. Below I have provided more details.

The camera uses 620 roll film but has not been film tested.

The camera has a Kodak Doublet Lens and Kodon Shutter. The lens includes F-Stops of 11, 16, 22 and 32. The camera uses shutters speeds of T, B, 25, 50, and 100. The levers for the aperture and shutter speeds are working. The shutter does trigger at all settings. B keeps the shutter open while the shutter level is depressed. T keeps the shutter open until the shutter lever is pushed a second time. The aperture does open and close the diagram. I did not see any scratches or fog on the lens. You may see some small dust particles. The aperture may have some slight oil marks but this could also just be some wear from age and use. Note: Neither the aperture or shutter have been tested for accuracy.

The shutter speed settings and aperture openings are engraved on the top and on the front of the shutter. A cable release can be used by removing the screw that is behind the shutter lever. (The screw was left off later model cameras).

To open the camera lift the platform vertical support/lock and pull away from the camera. Gently pull down on the platform bed until the it locks into place. To close the camera hold it in the position so that you are looking down at the camera as if to take a portrait picture. The viewfinder needs to be in the portrait position. To the right and left of the camera lens housing there are small flanges on the folding metal braces. Using your thumbs push down on both of flanges at the same time and the platform will unlock. Then push the bed into the camera body and rotate the platform support to the locked position.

To open the camera back slide the button toward the arrow and pull up on the camera back. The camera back is hinged. The camera back is a little tight when opening and closing. To load film, or remove the spool, lift up on the hinged spool holder. To remove the take up spoon lift up on the winding knob.

This is a vintage camera and is in very good condition. The bellows appear to be in good condition with some signs of use and age but have not been tested to determine if they are light tight. The leatherette material is intact with little signs of use or wear. The chrome pieces do not have any signs of tarnish or rust. The inside of the camera is clean. The strap is in good condition with no cracking.

Please review the photographs. If you have any questions please message me.
