This example was found painted with heavy black paint presumably to conceal its origins. The military plate had been mounted on the two brass rivets located to the right of the lens. On the back the remnant of the PH-324 desgnation can still be seen.
The serial number 136017 can be seen stamped in the bottom plate. The camera is believed to have been built between 1941 and 1943.

The Kodak 35 camera was the first 35mm camera produced by Kodak in the USA and was available from 1938 through 1948. During WWII an olive drab model was built for the US Army and Signal Corps until about 1943 when the rangefinder model became available.
A number of lens and shutter combinations were available in civilian models over the decade that it was marketed. However, the military model, designated PH-324, was equipped with the Kodak Anastigmat 51mm f/4.5 lens.
