This vintage Kodak Photographic Notebook is a fascinating artifact from the golden age of film photography. Published as a supplementary resource to the iconic Kodak Reference Handbook, it served as a practical guide for photographers working with Kodak’s industry-leading products and processes. The ring-bound hardcover format allowed for easy updates and additions, ensuring that photographers had access to the latest information and techniques.
While the cover shows signs of use, the clean interior pages and secure binding indicate that this copy was well-loved and heavily referenced by its previous owner. The wear and scuff marks are tangible reminders of the hands-on nature of photography, where notebooks like this were constant companions in the darkroom and on location.
For collectors of photographic ephemera and Kodak memorabilia, this notebook offers a glimpse into the technical expertise and innovative spirit that defined the brand during its heyday. It also serves as a time capsule, preserving the methodologies and best practices of an era when film reigned supreme and the art of photography was inextricably linked to chemical processes and manual techniques.
