I got an interesting Kodak 1A camera, that seems to have made its way here from somewhere in middle eastern part of USSR like Uzbekistan or Azerbaijan.. The camera itself does not differ in any way from a regular Kodak 1A, but the case seems to be hand customized with a beautiful relief.
Thought I'd share this magnificent exhibit with you. Also notice a Soviet Union sticker in English - it is very interesting..
Thanks Aidas! But most indicators this maybe a pre-war piece as well, since I believe the 1A was manufactured in 1926, even though patents on the camera state 1909... Has anyone seen this kind of Soviet Union sticker on anything before??
