PREMOETTE JUNIOR
To see this little camera is to be instantly attracted by it. Made largely of aluminum it is just a trifle larger than the picture it makes. It is extremely light in weight. It inspires confidence by its appearance and fulfills it in its results.
It will go into even a boy's pocket or a lady's hand-bag. And while these cameras are so very small in dimensions, they make good size pictures—two of the most popular of amateur sizes. The No. 1 is for 2¼ × 3¼ and the No. 1A for 2½ × 4¼ pictures.
The greatest of care is taken in the selection of lenses for these cameras. For the single lens fitting only meniscus achromatic lenses which have stood rigid tests are used, and the same is true of the double lens equipment where our standard Planatograph lenses are fitted in each case. Thus these cameras will produce sharp, clearly defined pictures under ordinarily favorable conditions. And the negatives are of such quality that good enlargements up to almost any desirable size can be easily obtained from them.
For this reason many amateurs who already have larger cameras are adding these inexpensive little cameras to their photographic outfits. They can be easily carried where oftentimes the larger cameras might be inconvenient, and where larger pictures are wanted it is an easy matter to secure them by the simple process of enlargement. Any amateur can enlarge his own negatives by use of the inexpensive enlarging camera described on page [37] or his finisher will gladly do it for him.
The Premoette Jr. is fitted with the smoothly working, precise Kodak Ball Bearing Shutter, the camera is covered with genuine grain leather and is handsomely finished in every detail. And with its compact, substantial construction and capabilities for high grade work is combined that simplicity of loading and operating possible only in a Premo Film Pack camera. See page [4]. In addition to these advantages any Premoette Jr. will make an excellent outfit for home portrait work when fitted with the inexpensive Kodak Portrait Attachment.
For one who desires to make a present at the holidays, or on any occasion, the Premoette Jr. makes an ideal gift. It is suitable alike for a boy or girl, a man or woman of any age.

PREMOETTE JR. SPECIAL
So compact, so generally desirable is the Premoette Jr. that there are many amateurs among the more serious, particular workers, who have wished for a camera of the same type with the very maximum of photographic efficiency.
For the average amateur the regular Premoette Junior will be found eminently satisfactory, but for those who insist upon the best to be had, who demand a camera capable of making good pictures under all conditions where pictures could possibly be made, the Premoette Jr. Special is a revelation.
Here is a camera with the light weight and compactness, the ease of loading and operating of the original Premoette Jr., but with an equipment which places it on a par in capabilities, with the largest, most expensive amateur cameras made.
It is fitted with the Compound shutter with cable release, attaining a maximum speed of 1/300 of a second in the No. 1 and 1/250 in the No. 1A size and the Zeiss Kodak Anastigmat lens f.6.3. This lens was made expressly for hand camera work and combines depth, definition and speed to a remarkable degree. This equipment enables one to work under adverse conditions that the ordinarily equipped camera could not meet as, for instance snap shot work in dull lights, fast indoor portraiture, and the like. And the remarkable sharpness and depth of the negatives make them suitable for enlarging up to any size desired.
Either size can be carried in any pocket or in a lady's hand-bag. Thus, however cramped for room, one may be certain he can take along a Premoette Jr., and make as good pictures of anything he cares about, as can be made with any camera.
Aside from the difference in size, the two models are practically identical. Focusing is provided for by a series of three focusing slots in which the standard is inserted as occasion requires. The focusing block on the No. 1 folds over to permit closing the camera; in the No. 1A this is not necessary.
In keeping with its high grade equipment, we have finished this camera in the best possible manner. It is covered with genuine Persian Morocco, and the bellows is of the finest quality black leather, giving it a rich, attractive appearance.
In a word, this is the finest, most capable, handsomest small camera you ever saw—a marvel of compactness and efficiency.
