Spec Notes

Type D. The renamed successor to the Cine-Kodak Medallion-8, from March 1957 - the marque drops "Cine-". End date NOT SOURCED. SERIAL NUMBERS: these bodies DO carry serials (Kerr's own Special is number 330; a Science Museum Group Royal Magazine is 65678) but NO Cine-Kodak serial-to-year scheme is published anywhere - checked across all four Kerr monographs, Wikipedia, Pacific Rim Camera's Cine reference library and two museum catalogues. Date these bodies by model production window only.
