Kodak Pony 828 Camera, black metal camera w/silver front & gray top w/leather case.Use
Folding cameras, also known as bellows cameras, were historically used for their portability and ruggedness. They feature a collapsible bellows system that allows the camera to fold down to a more compact size for easy storage and transport. This design was popular from the late 1890s through the mid-20th century, particularly for amateur photographers, before the advent of 35mm film cameras.Cataloged By
