Kodak Brownie
$1 camera from 1900 that invented the snapshot and made everyone a photographer.
In 1900, the Kodak Brownie democratized photography as a $1 cardboard box camera using 15-cent roll film, transforming it from an expert craft into a pastime for children on a Sunday afternoon. Selling over 250 million units, it created the snapshot concept and outperforms Nikon F in accessibility. Every family photo album for the next century traces back to this box and enabled mass-market photography at a fraction of the cost.
