Scope and content
Item is a Kodak Retina 35mm camera with the serial number EK186290. The EK prefix symbolizes that this camera was a USA import. It features a Schneider-Kreuznach Retina-Xenar f3.5/50 mm lens and a Compur-Rapid shutter. This camera is quite similar to the pre-war Retina 1 (Type 148) but the focusing ring lacks the milled edge and the exposure counter indicator arrow is located at the front of the top housing rather than at the mid-housing position.
