Kodak Beau Brownie No 2
The Kodak Beau Brownie No 2 is a box-form roll film camera produced by Kodak in the early 1930s, taking 120 roll film. It was a decorated version of the standard Brownie line, distinguished by a coloured enamelled metal faceplate with a geometric Art Deco pattern designed by Walter Dorwin Teague, and was sold as an entry-level camera aimed at a style-conscious consumer market.
UK auction hammer results for the Beau Brownie No 2 in the records available span roughly £41 to £350, reflecting how heavily condition and faceplate colour drive value at saleroom level. With only two sales on file the median sits near the midpoint of that range, and as of 2026 buyers should expect the price a Beau Brownie No 2 sells for to depend chiefly on the state of the enamel — these are wholesale hammer figures rather than retail dealer asking prices.
