Lot 783: A Pair of Contemporary Polychrome Tube-lined Ceramic Wall Plaques
This collection of photographic equipment comprises a variety of motion picture and still-image cameras. Included is a Chinon Super 8 movie camera featuring a black and silver-tone body, an integrated pistol grip with a trigger shutter, and a black wrist strap. It is fitted with a Chinon Reflex Zoom f/1.7 lens with a focal length of 8.5mm to 34mm and includes a back light control button. Also present is a Kodak Brownie Flash II box camera designed for 620 roll film, featuring a metal body with a black textured leatherette-style covering and a silver and grey striped front faceplate bearing the red Kodak logo. It includes two brilliant viewfinders for portrait and landscape orientations. The collection further contains a folding bellows camera with a metal chassis, black fabric bellows, and an internal wooden film spool; no maker marks are clearly legible on this unit. The final item is a small-format roll film box camera of metal and wood construction with a heavily worn black covering and illegible faceplate markings, resembling the style of the Kodak Hawkeye series.
