Kodak Boy Scout Kodak Camera

The Boy Scout Kodak Camera is a Kodak-branded folding film camera marketed to scouts in the early 20th century. It was sold as an entry-level snapshot camera with Boy Scout livery, positioning it as a youth-oriented product rather than a serious photographic instrument.

Auction evidence for the Boy Scout Kodak Camera is thin, with a single UK saleroom hammer result of £56 recorded in 2022. On that limited basis, today's value at auction sits in the lower double digits to around £60 for a complete example, though wholesale hammer prices exclude buyer's premium and can swing sharply with condition and originality.
