Période

1920's and 1930's

Canada

Kodak Canada was founded by Eastman Kodak in 1899 in a Toronto shop where employees cut sheet film and fitted lenses on cameras to support the growing potential for a photographic market in Canada. As Canadian interest in photography grew, the company expanded across the country throughout the 20th century to produce in all aspects of photography including still and movie cameras, film, x-ray film, photocopy paper, and photographic chemicals under many popular names including Brownie, Kodacolor, Carousel, and Supermatic. This camera is linked to the William M. Cottingham photography collection of Library and Archives Canada, Accession number 1972-208. Cottingham was the Provincial Minister of Mines and Mining Resources for Quebec from 1954 to 1960. The photograph collection is comprised of 1764 black and white photos and 129 color photos.

It incorporated the Autographic feature that allowed the photographer to write information on the film at the time of exposure.
