A good friend and fellow photographer gifted me a few cameras he found at a yard sale. One was a Kodak Brownie Hawkeye. The Brownie looked in good cosmetic shape but I was not sure if it actually would work. After taking it apart and giving it a thorough cleaning this camera has come to life! The viewfinder is now nice and bright. I was amazed at the quality and sharpness of the images taken through this 71 year old camera. Such a simple camera doing exactly what it was designed to do. The camera did have an exposed roll of film in it. Unfortunately, after some research and careful film developing, the film was too far gone to salvage.
