The Pocket Kodak was an easy to use camera with a low price and small size. It permitted consumers to simply place the camera in their pockets or handbags. Kodak promoted photography as pleasurable and entertaining encouraging not only professional photographers but also amateurs. Consumers admired the Pocket Kodak as a simple and fashionable camera (Pocket Kodak, http://www.kodaksefke.nl/pageID_9270736.html). 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.

Technique

A self-erecting folding roll film camera that produced 2¼ X 3¼ inch images on 120 film using a Kodak Anastigmat f/7.7 lens and a Diomatic shutter (Coe, 147).
