The "A Century of Progress Eastman Box Camera" was manufactured in 1933 by Kodak Ltd. It was a Rainbow Hawkeye No. 2 Model C with a commemorative face-plate designed specifically for the worlds fair. It depicts Transport, Federal Bldg. and Carillon tower and provides the dates 1833 and 1933 of the fair. The camera was capable of capturing 2 1/4 x 3 1/4 inch exposures on standard 120 roll film. It was fitted with a fixed focus meniscus lens and a simple rotary shutter. It is unknown if this was actually sold at the fair because few examples exist.
