[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 767279, member: 48483"] Cindy, that is a medium-format film. 620 is the same width of the far more common 120 film, but the spool is physically smaller and the take-up notch in the center is not exactly the same. Kodak made many Brownies and other types of cameras in the 620 format. I had one that came from a rummage sale as a child. Here is a photo I found online of the same model. Believe it or not in the 1970's you could still buy boxes of a dozen of those 1-use flash bulbs for the camera.
