The Story of Photography
Photography stretches time
Aids Every Occupation
Popular at Play
Photography plays its part … as a hobby, reporting the news, as motion picture entertainment, in science (electron track from radium E), in public health.

New Products, New Business.
This is a picture of a “ping.”
It’s the photographic record of an oscilloscope trace that shows, and times, detonation in a “knocking” engine.
Industries Within an Industry.
Consumers require varied photographic materials.
At work here are commercial, scientific, and industrial photographers.
Successful Diversification
General Motors Photo
CAMERAS
Range from Simple to Comples
Production Standards High
Amateur and special-purpose cameras made by Kodak include:
The Tourist, Magazine Cine-Kodak, Eastman High-Speed Camera Type III and Triplex Recordak.
LENSES
Sectional view of Kodak Ektar lens and mount.
Some of the many Kodak lenses for cameras and enlargers
Designers Trace Rays of Light
In vacuum chambers, lenses are coated with mmagnesium fluoride
Electric furnaces.
Kodak’s new “rare element” glas is made here.
When two surfaces of lenses are fitted together, differences of 1/100,000
th
of an inch can be detected.
Lens centering All-Important
Kodak Advances Lense Design
First Basic Glass Discovery Since ‘88
PHOTOGRAPHIC FILM
Photography comes alove in color.
Ektachrome reproductions such as this, with their natural beauty and warmth, are the culmination of the photographic artist’s skillful use of the materials provided by photographic science.

ROCHESTER
Leading orchestras and concert artists appear at the Eastman Theate, adjacent to the Eastman School of Music in downtown Rochester.
Rich in Indian lore and scenic beatuty, the Finger Lakes region has much appeal for Kodak people.
Fishing is a popular pastime.
Canadian lakes, a short distance to the nOrth, are a mecca for sportsmen in summer.
Cultural and recreational facilities are abundant.

For a long time astronomers have looked 500 million light years into space.
Now they can see twice as far.
For the big 200-inch Mount Palomar telescope – actually the world’s largest camera – will bring in light from stars a billion light years away, about six sextillion miles.
Thus, science continuously makes spectacular use of photography in penetrating the unknown.
All of these camera publications and cameras, old film, camera parts and hardware and developing hardware was found in my uncle's attic.
Some was found in a chest of drawers in the dining room.
