The Brownie Camera

 

The Brownie Camera


            The brownie camera was first introduced in February 1900, invented by Palmer Cox and introduced the concept of a snap shot. It became popular because it was the new concept of the snap shot and it's inexpensive cost of $1 brought attraction hence the slogan "you push the button, we do the rest". When it was first introduced it was a meniscus lens that took 2 1/4-inch square pictures on 117 roll film inside of a cardboard box. It changed everything because people were finally able to take a still shot photo to keep and it was so simple. The brownie camera is where all photography started.
