Description:
This is a metal and plastic Kodak 56X Instamatic Camera. The front of the camera is made of black and beige-coloured plastic. The lens is in the centre front of the camera. A small Kodak logo has been moulded out of the plastic on the bottom right, along with the words Made in England . At the top left is the model name. Above this is the shutter release button, which is a long metal strip. The view finder is in the top right corner. There is a housing on the top of the camera for a flash, which is not included in this example. There would have been a wrist cord attached to the left hand side of the camera, although only the metal attachment pin remains. The back cover release button is on the bottom of the right hand side of the camera. On the top left of the back of the camera is a small square viewfinder. The film wind-on lever is on the top right. There is a long plastic window in the middle of the back panel to check the film number.
