Biographical / Historical

The No. 1 Kodak Autographic Junior was a folding camera for 120 film (6x9 cm). It was introduced in 1914, replacing the No. 1 Kodak Junior. The Autographic version added a window on the back in which the user could write notes on the film using a metal stylus. It was made by Eastman Kodak Co. in Rochester and some units may also have been made in Canada. With more than 800,000 units made, it was discontinued in 1927. According to Brian Coe, the No. 1 Autographic Jr. can be found in different lens and shutter combinations. (Coe, p.122)
