Antique, vintage cameras

[jagwar.jim]

Hey everyone

I inherited some very old cameras from my grandfather, but I don't know anything about them. Maybe someone here can help me out?

All the information I have is in this post, but I want to know more about them if possible!

Thanks for any information you can offer!

The one in the middle I believe to be a Kodak Vest Pocket Autographic

the other two - no idea. But a nice bunch. Enjoy!

BTW: 127 film for the camera can be found here:

The one on the bottom looks like a Zeiaa Ikon Nettal Tropen Sonnet

2nd one is definitely a Vest Pocket Kodak. If it has a little stylus and a hatch on the back then it is an Autographic VPK. The camera was introduced in 1915, and was produced well into the 1920s with different finishes (gloss and crackle paint) and lenses (meniscus, rectilinear). Yours appears to have the meniscus lens.

The one on the top looks like an SLR camera, similar to a Graflex.

I'd say the top one was a Thornton Pickard Junior Special Ruby Reflex.
