Kodak Six-20 Brownie 1955

    Hi,

    I bought my g/f a Kodak Six-20 Brownie (1955) camera earlier today and I'm looking to make a small collage of info about it to go along with the present but need some help if anyone knows.

    I'm looking for cool info like a 1955 advertisement of the camera itself that I could print off, photographers/famous people?/events the camera could have been used at during the 40's and 50's. Basically just cool info tidbits to go along with it.

    Cheers in advance.

    Ok, I've managed to find 10 old posters online (hopefully they print out ok). My plan is to print them, stain them with coffee and burn the edges of each to give them an old school look and then bind them in the corner with a piece of string.

    But I can't find any actual info on the camera itself or photographers/famous people etc who used or were photographed using this model or any historical events (if there are any that is).

    Slightly off topic, but you can still get 620 b/w film online, seems its rewound 120 film,onto a 620 spool, the locking teeth are different in the top and bottom only.
    I had one of those cameras also! mine was black front and black sides. Kinda fun alright. You will get 8 large frames off a roll of film.
    Nice present for retro christmas.
