Kodak Stereo Brownie No.2
The Kodak Stereo Brownie No.2 is an early box-form roll-film stereo camera, designed to produce side-by-side paired exposures for viewing in a stereoscope. It dates from the first decade of the twentieth century, positioned at the affordable amateur end of Kodak's stereo range rather than alongside the firm's folding plate stereo cameras.
At recent UK auction, hammer prices for the Stereo Brownie No.2 have sat in a fairly tight band of roughly £200–£230, with a median around £210 based on the limited sales on file. The most recent saleroom result, in December 2024, was £212, and earlier hammer prices from 2017 and 2003 sit close to that level — suggesting the model's value in today's auction market is condition-led rather than driven by speculative demand, with these figures representing wholesale results before buyer's premium.
