The Kodak No. 2 Folding Autographic Brownie was a folding camera for the type 120 Autographic film. More than half a million models were made between 1915 and 1926, with various design tweaks made along the way. The sharp edged boxes were changed to curved in 1917, and the foot shape changed from a C-curve to an S-shape in 1919.
