Camera Clock Repurposed from Kodak No 2 Folding Cartridge Camera.

This camera dates from between 1917 & 1922. The inside shows Patent dates up to 1917.

I've managed to insert the movement without damaging the camera. I've kept the original lens (and will supply it along with the camera) so if it should ever become a valuable antique it can be reverted.

The Kodak No. 2 Folding Cartridge Premo was a folding camera for the type 120 film.

This camera was bought recently from a local sale. It has been used a lot and shows signs of wear. However it has a real nostalgic charm and I would love know where it went snapping. Taking it apart to install the clock movement I was bowled over by the engineering of the shutter mechanism. In fact it was more advanced than many cameras made decades later!

Of course the camera is no longer functional (but I'll supply the pieces I removed, just in case) but it does make an interesting clock.

The clock movement is virtually silent and the second moves smoothly without jerking and it comes with battery and 12 month warranty.

It comes nicely boxed and will make an ideal gift for anyone interested in photography.

I also have a copy of the manual in pdf format which I'll send via email.
