Kodak Brownie Starmite II with Box

The Brownie Starmite was one of a very successful range of "star" cameras made by Kodak in the early 1960s. It took square, 4x4cm (1 1/2" x 1 1/2") images on 127 film. The only adjustment was a lever below the lens, giving EV 13 (flash) & 14 (daylight) by adjusting the aperture. It featured a double exposure prevention system.
