THIS IS THE KODAK No.2 HAWKETTE 120 roll film CAMERA used to take the Milton Lodge Photographs.

This Kodak camera is over 70 years old and was used by the author to take the photographs of boys at Milton Lodge School in the 1940's. It was bought in the 1930's by the his parents using Black Cat cigarette coupons! The 120 roll films were dish developed under the bedclothes and printed using POP (printing out paper). POP paper was exposed in a printing frame to sunlight and then fixed with Hypo, no development was needed as during exposure to the sun the image appeared directly on the paper. Unfortunately, due to the nature of the paper and process fixing had a limited life and even though the Milton Lodge prints have been kept away from sunlight many have begun to fade away.
