Six-20 Brownie Junior Antique Camera

The Six-20 Brownie Junior may not taste as good as a chocolate desert, but it sure did take some gorgeous photographs back in its day. Below are some shots of the EASTMAN KODAK Co. Six-20 Brownie Junior (1934 – 1942) with the art-decó face. The camera belonged to my grandfather, Douglas Morom.

According to Camerapedia.org, “The Six-20 Brownie Junior remains faithful to the principles which made the success of Brownies but it improves the way this camera is manufactured. The paperboard remains the main component but metal (almost) replaced wood for the body. This camera manufactured in US has been proposed with two different front faces : black front face and art-decó face. No diaphragm on this simple camera. The aperture, which consists of two holes, is selected by pulling a tab on top of the camera.”
