Chronology of cameras Agfa
Agfa has manufactured in Germany and other countries a series of 6 x 9 cm box cameras whose only name is a number.
They are very classic, made either of cardboard or metal. They have a meniscus lens, usually focusless. Very simple, they have, for most of them, no settings.
The number, which does not appear on the cameras, does not seem to follow any logic.
There are other box cameras that do not fit into this list because they do not have a number.
