In Christmas times past, the family would gather around, Grandmother would get out her box camera and she would memorialize the moment with a careful snapshot of the day. This was what my family’s Christmas tree looked like back in 1977. Somehow, the negative got a little fogged along the edges, but it lends it the look from times past. This was my fifth camera. Camera: Kodak No. 2A Cartridge Premo Model B (made approx. 1919) Film: Kodak Kodacolor II 100 ASA 116 film Aperture: ? Shutter Speed: “B” (bulb) Date: December 1977 Location: Norris City, Illinois, U.S.A. Kodak No. 2A KSF6014-1 08df

Taken with the third camera I ever owned - a Kodak No. 2A Cartridge Premo Model B. It got exposed somehow toward the right side of the negative, so I cropped it a little. It was taken indoors of my family's kitchen at the time. I'm pretty sure the shot was taken in 1977.

A snow scene one winter in my little town. It was taken directly across the highway from where my house was. Camera: Kodak No. 2A Cartridge Premo Model B (made in 1919) Film: Kodak Kodacolor, 100 ASA 116 film Aperture: f/16 (most likely) Shutter Speed: 1/25 of a sec. (approximately) Date: 1977 Location: Norris City, Illinois, U.S.A. 116-1-2df

This is an old Kodak box camera I've had since around 1977. It dates back to 1916 for when it was made, so it's over 100 years old! I dug it out last night with the intent of finally using it for the first time. I've used old box cameras before with 35mm film in them, but that left too much of the field of view unphotographed. I realized that 120 film all but fills up the area of view, so I put some Fomapan 400 black and white film in it to try it out. What I did was to cut some of the leader off in the dark and taped it inside the camera. By doing that, I should get more negative area to use instead of just the part where the numbers begin. It was photographed on a table at least as old as is the camera. This table used to belong to my Great-Grandmother Sullivan.
