Kodak Pocket No.1A
The Kodak Pocket No.1A is a folding roll-film camera from Kodak's early 20th-century Pocket series, made for the 116 film format that produced postcard-style negatives. It was a consumer-grade folding bellows camera intended for general snapshot use.
Hammer prices for the Pocket No.1A at UK auction have ranged from about £30 to £80, with the two recorded saleroom results sitting roughly two decades apart and giving a midpoint near £55. As of today the model trades as a low-value collectable rather than a sought-after Kodak, and what a Pocket No.1A is worth today depends heavily on bellows condition and completeness of the leather case — clean, working examples sell for more than tatty ones at the upper end of that range.
