It had a unique film take-up mechanism that did not require a film spool. Designed by Arthur Crapsey, it was a striking example of mid-century design aesthetic.

Signet Ring

Egyptian, Dyansty, reign of Akhenaten, ca. 1353-1336 BC

 

The Hieroglyphs on this ring may be read as an ideogram. The two seated figures are probably Akhenaten (left) and Nefertiti (right) as the deities Shu (air) and Tefnut) moisture). They were father and mother of the earth and sky, which are symbolically represented by the earth hieroglyph (below) and by the sun disk flanked by two sacred cobras (above).

I always make a joke when my friends use their signets. Imagine that signets have a power of magic! That's how a new catoon born!

The Fly by Richard Chopping. 1966. Cover by Hoot von Zitzewitz.

Produced from 1958 to 1962, the Kodak Signet 80 was the last serious rangefinder Kodak made. It was an interchangeable lens camera: in addition to the 50mm lens, 35mm and 90mm lenses were available. It had a unique film take-up mechanism that did not require a film spool. Designed by Arthur Crapsey, it was a striking example of mid-century design aesthetic.

The Kodak Signet 35 was Kodak's top American-made 35mm camera of the 1950's and the first of the Kodak Signet camera line. The Signet 35 has a coupled coincident image rangefinder, an excellent Ektar 44mm f3.5 lens with rear helicoid focus, automatic film stop counter with double exposure prevention, all built into a sturdy cast aluminum alloy body. The manually cocked Kodak Synchro 300, shutter works well, but compared with the shutters on equivalent German and Japanese cameras of the period, it has significantly fewer speeds (B, 1/25, 1/50, 1/100, and 1/300). However, time has proved the shutter to be very reliable, especially when compared to some of Kodak's leaf shutters of more impressive specifications.
