11/28/2017 - What is it? It is a 1903 Kodak Premo No. 1 camera using a 3¼×4¼ inch film pack. See the second photo.
The Film Pack was introduced by Kodak in 1903 and was at first called the Premo Film Pack. It was used in the Film Premo camera and was made in quarter-plate, Postcard and 4×5inch sizes. Later it was made in 2¼×3¼ and 5×7inch. The pack contained 12 sheets of film, thinner than single sheet film, each with a numbered paper tab attached; it could be inserted into the holder in daylight. The tabs protruded from the loaded holder; as a sheet was exposed you pulled its tab which moved the exposed film to the back of the pack.
