I am attempting to do a serial number survey regarding Kodak's uncommon MF rangefinder, the Chevron.
If you have one of these cameras, would you please share some information about it with me? I am looking for the lens serial number with its two letter prefix and the body serial number (found on the body below the focusing helical).
The purpose of this survey is to collect a database of serial numbers in order to determine patterns of production and gain an estimate of total cameras produced.
It is my intention to make this information public once enough examples have been tallied. Please reply below with your camera's information. It is my intention to attribute individual examples to their owners. If you would like your information to not be made public, please DM me instead and I will add it to the list but not make it public.
Thanks.
(Apologies if this is not the exact sub-forum for this inquiry, However, I do believe most people who own Chevron's would frequent hus sub-forum.)

Hi David,
I added your serial to my list. You are the 49th camera I have recorded. RM2003 falls in the middle of estimated production, as I have examples of RM158-RM3443. All Chevrons I have recorded have RM lens codes (1953).
If possible, could I also get the body serial found under the lens mount?
I have also sent you a PM regarding your Ektra.
Kind Regards, Hunter.
