How to clean a Baby Brownie

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Brownie Cameras : One Thread

I was given a Baby Brownie by my aunt about 20 years ago. I recently rediscovered it in storage. There is mold (i pressume) inside the lens. Is there any way I can remove it? I haven't taken any photos with it so I can't say if the mold would show up or not.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Henry

Hi, Henry, I have a Baby Brownie Special, which takes 127 film (available in Europe which is why I haven't used it yet) by the way, and I just looked inside the case. If you are willing to do a little experimentation, there are two slotted screws on the inside that just might let you gain access to the lens, but I'm not sure about this.
