#Leaded: Antique Brownie Camera

Antique Brownie Hawkeye Camera by Kodak:
black plastic: lead-free,
metal knob (on left): 8,539 ppm lead.

The amount of lead that is considered toxic in an item intended for children is 90 ppm lead. Antiques and vintage items are not regulated and in most cases it is not required to mark them as containing lead (and being potentially hazardous) as it is required with many newly manufactured items.
