Rex flash bakelite camera

This camera is part of the New for Old collection, named after the camera exchange scheme ran by the Kodak company. Through this scheme, customers received a price reduction for a new camera in exchange for an old one. The collection represents a range of 20th century camera types from early box brownies and folding roll film cameras through to Polaroid cameras and Kodak tele-instamatics. A diverse group of manufacturers are represented in the collection, from around the world.
