Context

Country: Canada
State/Province: Unknown
Period: Film is unused- sealed within original box.
Canada: 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.
Function: Unknown
Technical: The instamatic series of cameras were the first introduced by Kodak to incorporate the cassette film as a response to film rolls (traditionally in Brownie cameras). This move was designed to make the cameras easier to use for the average consumer. In addition, the integration of the "flashcube" into that camera that would advance as the film advanced was a new feature for this line of cameras allowing users to take pictures at a faster rate even in low light.
Area Notes: Unknown
