The Kodak Anastigmat Lens f.7.7 with which this model i1s equipped 1s of our own manufacture, designed and made solely for use on this camera. The idea back of this lens was to so equip a Vest Pocket Kodak that it would make negatives of such extreme sharpness that satisfactory en- largements could be made in any size. It has justified the work of our optical experts. It pro- duces negatives of that crispness and sharpness characteristic of the true anastigmat. For views or ‘‘close-ups”. The cam- era is of the fixed focus type. When the front is pulled out it is ready on the instant for street scenes or views, for any object that i1s 9 feet or more distant.

You can date and title every negative at the time of exposure, for the Vest Pocket, tiny as it is, carries this exclusive Kodak feature. You may not always care to date and title a negative—but you should always be able to.

And there is no extra charge for autographic film. . In every detail the Vest Pocket Kodak Specials show quality. They work with mechanical precision; in finish they are rich, quiet, unob- trusive. In action they are efficient. The price, $15.00, includes the excise war tax, and autographic film cartridges for 8 exposures are but twenty-five cents. At All Kodak Dealers’.
