Eastman Kodak 4x5 by Graflex, Any Info?

[Taylor Owens]

I recently acquired an "Eastman Kodak" 4x5 view camera made by Graflex.
Does anyone have some info on this camera? When it was made, how many were made, what its worth?

The badge on the back reads "made for Eastman Kodak Co. by Graflex inc. Rochester, 8, N.Y., U.S.A.

The lens is Kodak Anastigmat f-6.3, 152mm. No.884 all in a F.Deckel-Munchen Compur shutter

Any help figuring out the origins of this camera would be helpful
Thanks

I have no idea of value or anything, but Graflex made cameras for EK in the early to mid 1900s. From the markings, I think the only time it was referred to as Graflex Inc. with no markings for Folmer on it would have been from about 1945-55? Kodak bought stock in Graflex, actually absorbed it into Kodak a couple times I believe, blended it with Folmer Schwing, and finally spun it off into its own company. Is there a serial number on it?

There is a number that is stamped into the wood of the rails that reads 92, thats it

See this thread, particularily post #9
(there was a url link here which no longer exists)
I suspect it might be a Kodak 2d but I think it has work done on the front (like it's better now)

It does look a lot like my Kodak 2D 5x7, but with a 4x5 reducing back.
These clean up real nicely and are good user cameras.

Thanks to all that helped,
It does seem to be a 2d with a reducing back
