Kodak Brownie Bullet 1957-1964

The Brownie Bullet was made by Eastman Kodak in both the United States and in Brazil from September 1957 until 1964. The Brownie Bullet was a promotional, or "premium", exact copy of the Brownie Holiday camera. These promotional/ premium cameras were not normal retail items, but were used for promotional purposes by thirdparty companies to encourage customers to take advantage of their goods or services.

This camera features a Dakon lens and a rotary shutter system and uses 127 film. It has a molded black plastic body with white, cream, or grayish controls. It has a plastic lens and viewfinder. The shutter is operated by a white plastic push button on the top. The film winder is also in white plastic. The body has two halves which are held together by a sliding latch on either side.
