Description

Color: Black; White "Kodakery," Vol. 3, No. 12, August 1916 issue, 32 pp., published by the Eastman Kodak Company. The front cover has a gray border, within which is a darker gray panel. At the top is the title with the subtitle, "A / MAGAZINE FOR AMATEUR / PHOTOGRAPHERS." Below this is a photograph, within a white and gray border, of a woman seated in an open car and holding a camera in her hands. The publication date is underneath the image and the company name and place of business, designated as "The Kodak City," is at the bottom. On the back cover is an advertisement with prices for the No. 2C Autographic Kodak Junior and lenses. The inside front cover and flyleaf contain a statement of the Kodak trademark and its motto: "If it isn't an Eastman / It Isn't a Kodak." Articles include "Pictorial Europe", snapshots on cloudy days, film dating, using tripods, a centerfold area of summer bathers at rivers and the ocean, the uses of lenses, an announcement for a photo contest, and an index to articles from the 1915-16 volume of the magazine. At the back are advertisements for Kodak products, such as cameras, tripods, Velox paper and developing materials. There is some significant cover wear, surface soiling and creases and many pages have soiling and creases, so the object is in fair condition.
