Ensign All-Distance Twenty Box Camera — Vintage 120 Film, 1930s
A lovely vintage box camera manufactured by the Houghton Butcher Manufacturing Company, England. The All-Distance Twenty features a pull-out wire viewfinder, black leatherette covering, and the simple point-and-shoot operation that made box cameras so popular with everyday photographers in the 1930s.
Condition
- Cosmetic: Generally good condition for its age. Black leatherette is mainly intact with age-related edge wear and some minor fraying at the corners. Light surface rust on the winding key, side latches, and pull-out viewfinder wire — typical for cameras of this era.
- Mechanical: Shutter and film advance both work correctly.
- Internal: Internal mechanics are clean.
Provenance
- Maker: Houghton Butcher Manufacturing Company, England — one of Britain's foremost camera makers of the early 20th century, also responsible for the Ensign brand.
- Model: Ensign All-Distance Twenty — named for its fixed-focus 'all-distance' lens, designed to keep subjects sharp without adjustment.
- Format: 120 roll film.
- Era: 1930s.
