I was somewhat sad to hear about Kodak’s Chapter 11. Could it be the end for Kodak? Once a mighty player in the photography world with inspiring products such as the Brownie and Instamatic, now a sinking ship in the digital industry. But lets not forget: the photography community owes a lot to Kodak: Paving the way for the cost effective camera for the mass market, amazing advancements with the color Kodachrome film (see image -taken from my personal collection: Holiday magazine June 1949), and the simple, yet beautiful functionalist industrial design of products, by designers such as Kenneth Grange, are just a handful of the company’s innovations and achievements.
