The Kodak Brownie Six-20 is a box camera that unlike most box cameras has some more settings.
There is only one shutter speed (I)nstant + (B)ulb, like most of the box cameras, but also has a lever to select apertures f11,16 and 22 and another lever to select subject distances; this lever actually puts a small lens over the camera's main lens.
The camera uses only 620 film. 620 film is 120 film rolled in slimmer 620 reels.
I used an 120 film that had its reel edges trimmed off to a smaller diameter with a nail cutter. The take up spool though needs to be a genuine 620 spool for the film to advance.
I used an 160 Kodak Portra film. The format of the film is 6x9cm. Labs don't have such a big mask to scan the film so I rephotographed the negatives. Here are the results:
Wreck. Main lens, shutter dial at I, f16
Boat detail. Group add-on lens, shutter dial at I, f16
Swan. Portrait attachement lens, shutter dial at I, f22
Girl. Portrait add-on lens, shutter dial at I, f11
Square scene. Two exposures, main lens, shutter dial at I, f16
Shop arcade. Main lens, shutter dial at B (3 seconds I guess) and f11
