Description
Part A is the camera, which is black, with black bellows. It has a small foot stand under the base to allow it to sit level on a flat surface. The foot says "KODAK" in stylized letters.

Part B is the case. It is black with brown. It has a metal clasp with the initials KC. It has a strap around the top for carrying.
History Of Use
The Folding Camera 1A Autographic Special Model B was only produced for a couple of months, so very little has been written about the camera. We do know that, as an autographic camera, the photographer who used it would be able to sign their name right onto the film, so that when the picture was taken, the photographer’s name or the title they gave the image would be printed right onto the picture. It used film size 120, and cost $79.
