 Kodak No. 3A Folding Brownie (not "Autographic"), manufactured sometime between 1909-1915. With research, I've narrowed this one down to between 1909-1911. From what I understand from various sources, the presence of a red bellows indicates it was made from sealskin, a hardier material than the later cloth (and black, usually) bellows.

shutter appears to work, but until/unless I can figure out how to attach a film back to it, I can't use it - film type is obsolete - 124/122 film

Nice. I have some folders, but nothing like this. The red bellows and brass lens mount are a nice touch.

Great looking camera. Bellows looks to be in very good shape too. A fine specimen.
