It’s Thursday and on this day in history:
Color Motion Pictures
1928 George Eastman shows the first amateur color motion pictures to guests at his New York house, including Thomas Edison
> > > Clint’s comment: AI tells me: George Eastman's company introduced its first practical color film technology as Kodacolor for 16mm amateur motion pictures in July 1928, showcased alongside Thomas Edison. Earlier experimental color milestones by Eastman Kodak included a two-color glass-plate Kodachrome still process in 1914, followed by the breakthrough modern subtractive Kodachrome film in 1935.
