Description

Interior color photo taken at the Dow Plant. At the annual meeting of the American Photographers Association in Chicago, circa 1945, Mike O'Connell took this photo of the power house. After a speech by a R&D Manager at Kodak, who asserted that indoor color was not possible more than 4 feet from the camera, Mike O'Connell held up this photo and stunned both the audience and the Kodak expert.
