Kodak Beau Brownie No 2A
The Kodak Beau Brownie No 2A is a roll-film box camera produced by Kodak in the early 1930s as part of the Beau Brownie line, which paired the standard Brownie box body with a coloured, geometrically patterned Art Deco faceplate. The 2A designation indicates the larger of the two formats offered in the range.
UK auction data for this model is extremely thin: a single hammer result recorded at Christie's in 2002 realised £47, and no more recent saleroom prices are available to establish a reliable range or median for today's market. As such, current value guidance for what a Beau Brownie No 2A is worth or sells for in 2026 cannot be drawn confidently from the dataset, and buyers should treat that historic figure as indicative only of wholesale auction-hammer level rather than retail asking prices.

Prices shown are realised prices — auction results and completed eBay sales, never asking prices. Most saleroom figures are hammer prices, before commission; some houses publish a premium-inclusive figure, and we do not adjust for condition. Dealer and retail asking prices are typically higher.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Kodak Beau Brownie No 2A worth today?
The only UK auction record in our dataset is a £47 hammer price from 2002, so a current market value cannot be reliably stated; condition of the coloured faceplate is the main price driver.
How much does a Beau Brownie No 2A sell for at auction?
With just one recorded sale at £47, there is insufficient recent data to quote a representative auction price or range for this model.
Is the Beau Brownie No 2A collectable?
Yes — the Beau Brownie line is collected primarily for its Art Deco faceplate design, and the 2A is the larger-format version of the range.
