A wonderful mid-century Kodak Brownie Six-20 Model F box camera, manufactured in England by Kodak Limited and accompanied by its original fitted carrying case.
Produced during the 1950s, the Brownie Six-20 Model F represents the classic era of simple, accessible roll-film photography. Its distinctive brown-and-gold front panel, twin reflecting viewfinders, rounded box-camera body and period carrying strap give it an unmistakable mid-century appearance.
The camera was designed for Kodak 620 roll film, producing approximately 2¼ × 3¼ inch negatives. Kodak equipped the Model F with a simple meniscus lens, fixed aperture, rotary shutter, two reflecting finders, a supplementary portrait attachment, yellow filter and two-pin flash contacts. �

Collector’s Note
The Model F is one of the later English Six-20 Brownie box cameras, retaining the instantly recognisable Brownie design while incorporating flash synchronization and supplementary lens/filter controls. Its period brown-and-gold finish is particularly attractive, and examples accompanied by their old fitted carrying cases make appealing display pieces for collectors of vintage cameras, Kodak memorabilia and mid-century photographic equipment. �
Brass is actually an alloy, not a pure metal. It’s a combination of copper and zinc, and the proportions of these metals determine the colour and properties of the brass. Known for its durability and resistance to corrosion, brass has been used for centuries in everything from musical instruments to household items. Using brass utensils can impart a subtle metallic taste to food, enhancing its flavour profile.
