The art deco style No. 1A Gift Kodak was intended for women, and was designed by Walter Dorwin Teague.[1] It takes 116 film, and has a meniscus achromatic lens.[2]

The brown leather-covered camera has matching brown bellows and came in a cedar box with an art deco enamelled metal pattern on the lid. A similar pattern is on the outer box and on the camera's folding baseplate. It is a special version of the No. 1A Pocket Kodak Junior and was introduced for the Christmas season in 1930. A total of 10,000 units was made.
