The Brownie Starlet was a simple plastic fixed focus camera made by Kodak starting in 1957. It was one of the very successful "star" series of Brownies.
The Kodak Brownie Starlet is one model of the star series.
The Starlet comes with a few minor differences, the red lever indicates that it's from France while the grey is from US. The Brownie or sometimes Kodak branding are mostly placed at the left (as mine above) but on some placed at the right, I'm not sure whether these differences depends on if it's made in the US or France or if it's various annual volumes, but it's still the same camera. This model continued as the Brownie Bullet II camera from 1961. There is a Kodak Brownie Starlet II model which differ a bit in the body and are more angular built.
