I bought this camera a few weeks ago and the listing said it was a Seneca Snap 2A. I can confirm it says Seneca Snap by the strap. But I could not find much information about the camera, it has one exposure setting, just a set time and the back half is made of cardboard.

Hi,
Are you sure that your camera is a Seneca camera?
Here is a link that has all the catalogues from 1898 to 1923 https://piercevaubel.com/cam/catalogsseneca.htm I had a quick browse through a selection of the catalogues but could not find your camera listed.
Best regards.

The only other information I found shows Seneca may have made a Seneca snap before but the site never shows when it was manufactured http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Seneca_Snap
