The latest add to my vintage camera collection: a Kodak Bullet Camera. BAM!!!! This 1936 model is pretty simple. The viewfinder consists of a pair of frames and the lens is assembled on a helicoid slope, at the end of which a shutter release is located. I've had my eye on one of these for a few weeks and finally sniped it for $9 on Ebay last week. It cost me a little more than than I like paying but I couldn't resist the Art Deco styling. This is a Walter Dorwin Teague designed camera, as was my last find, the Brownie Special Six-20. For more on Teague and some of his classic designs, hit up Camerapedia.
