If you went to the finest winery, and selected their top-of-the-line vin- tage, you would be selecting Ektar 25. Now, if you were to select those few bottles that were aged to absolute per- fection, then you would be selecting Ektar 25 Professional. Kodak's manufacturing plant sees to it that all Ektar 25 film must fall within the tight tolerances they set for each distinct layer of film. When the specifications on a certain emulsion are found to be a perfect match in all areas, it becomes Ektar 25 Profession- al, and is refrigerated at that point. This better-than-best film is recom- mended for the professional photogra- pher demanding large enlargements from a 35mm negative.

  • KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman Invented an Emulsion-Coating Machine Which Enabled Him to Mass- Produce Photographic Dry Plates
    KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman invented an emulsion-coating machine which enabled him to mass- produce photographic dry plates. 1880 - Eastman began commercial production of dry plates in a rented loft of a building in Rochester, N.Y. 1881 - In January, Eastman and Henry A. Strong (a family friend and buggy-whip manufacturer) formed a partnership known as the Eastman Dry Plate Company. ♦ In September, Eastman quit his job as a bank clerk to devote his full time to the business. 1883 - The Eastman Dry Plate Company completed transfer of operations to a four- story building at what is now 343 State Street, Rochester, NY, the company's worldwide headquarters. 1884 - The business was changed from a partnership to a $200,000 corporation with 14 shareowners when the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company was formed. ♦ EASTMAN Negative Paper was introduced. ♦ Eastman and William H. Walker, an associate, invented a roll holder for negative papers. 1885 - EASTMAN American Film was introduced - the first transparent photographic "film" as we know it today. ♦ The company opened a wholesale office in London, England. 1886 - George Eastman became one of the first American industrialists to employ a full- time research scientist to aid in the commercialization of a flexible, transparent film base. 1888 - The name "Kodak" was born and the KODAK camera was placed on the market, with the slogan, "You press the button - we do the rest." This was the birth of snapshot photography, as millions of amateur picture-takers know it today. 1889 - The first commercial transparent roll film, perfected by Eastman and his research chemist, was put on the market.

In this connec INtion it is important to decide whether you will want to use the bulk of your pictures in their original size, or whether you expect to have them enlarged (or enjoy the fun of enlarging them yourself). Kodaks and Brownies offer you a wide range of models that make album-size pictures. Other types are designed for ''miniature" photography, which begins with diminutive cameras and negatives and ends with striking enlarge ments, or large images projected on a screen. TYPE OF CAMERA From the standpoint of design, the cameras in this catalog fall into three classes. The box models, easy to use and modest in price, are, nevertheless, thoroughly dependable picture makers in their intended sphere. The largest class, represented by the famous folding Kodaks, offers greater and car- compactness IMBS . fi rying ease, and in cludes several 1 groups of successively great er versatility.
