CommentsThe No.2 Portrait Brownie Camera was the first original camera to be made at the Kodak factory in Harrow. Duty on luxury goods in the 1920s had meant that camera manufacture in the UK began with the Cartridge Hawkeye and the Brownie Box Camera, but from 1929 Harrow-designed models were produced. The No.2 model was made in a variety of coloured finishes - grey, claret, brown, red, green, blue and black.
