Black Kodak camera. On the back side of the camera, it reads, "Use Autographic Film No. A-116." There is a red circle on this side as well. There are also two small handles on the side of the camera, possibly used to hold a neckstrap. The other side of the camera has a little tab that reads "Kodak." The camera was meant to be held vertically, as can be seen by the button for taking pictures on one side of the camera while the knob for winding the film is on the other side.

This appears to be a Kodak autographic camera, which takes film size A116. The front of the camera should open to reveal a sliding lens, whilke the back should open for insertion of the film. A116 film isn't manufactured any more.
