Kodak Folding Rainbow Hawk Eye No.2 Model C

The Folding Rainbow Hawk Eye No.2 Model C represents a typical mid-range folding box camera produced by Kodak during the first half of the 20th century, likely between the 1920s and 1940s. Characterized by its distinctive Art Deco-inspired styling, often featuring metal construction with black leatherette covering and vibrant red bellows, it housed a simple meniscus lens and a rotary shutter with a few speed settings. Designed for use with 120 roll film producing six 6×9 cm exposures, it was aimed at the amateur photographer seeking a portable and relatively affordable camera for snapshot photography, emphasizing ease of use over technical sophistication or optical performance.
