Eastman Kodak
No. 2A Folding Pocket Brownie Camera, 1910-1915

The Folding Pocket Brownie series was marketed as a more grown-up version of the basic box-style Brownie Camera. The No. 2A designation refers to size 116 rollfilm and an image size of 2½ x 4¼ inches. The camera was a successor to the Folding Brownie line, and was offered with both red and black bellows, though not concurrently. It sold for $7.00 when introduced, considerably more expensive than the $3.00 No. 2A Brownie in box form.

Despite the word "Pocket" in its name, this was a large camera, and only the deepest pocket would have been able to accommodate it.
