KODAK No. 2 Hawk-Eye FILM PACK CAMERA with instruction booklet. Produced between 1922 and 1925, it's an all-metal box camera that takes size 520 pack film as opposed to roll film, has a rotary shutter and a meniscus lens (optical lenses that produce a smaller focal point and fewer aberrations than a standard Plano-convex lens). The original Hawk-eye camera series was made by the Boston Camera Company, which was then bought by the Blair Camera Co., who also produced a line of Hawk-eye detective cameras in the last decades of the 19th century. In 1898, Eastman Kodak bought the Blair Camera Co., moved it to Rochester, and also introduced some cameras with the Hawk-eye name. 2¼ x 3¼ frame size. The camera is beautiful and in true pristine condition. Shutter fires. Thank you.
