Comments: This is a Gold Face version. Most Brownie Reflex cameras came with a Silver Face. The early versions of the Brownie Reflex had a hood with a front element with side wings as well as a rear element with side wings as in the original patent. This arrangement was soon abandoned for simply the front element with side wings. See the datafile for the Synchro model.
