Description:
The Premo Junior cameras are box cameras
made by Eastman Kodak in Rochester, NY in the United states,
between 1908 and the early 1920s. They are for twelve-exposure Premo film packs (see also the Cartridge Premo box cameras and the Folding Cartridge Premo, which take roll film).
Some of the cameras are wooden bodied; others are cardboard (both with leatherette covering). The No. 1 (2¼×3¼
inch) was the first model made; No. 1 was only added to the
name when other models were introduced.
The cameras have reflex viewfinders for portrait and landscape
orientation. They have a simple 'T' and 'I' shutter; however,
some of the models have aperture control, by a pull-out metal
strip with three fixed apertures in it, giving f/11, f/16 and f/22.
