Milestones in the History of the Motion-Picture Film Laboratory
On 6 May 1954, at the SMPTE Convention in Washington, D.C., J. I. Crabtree of the Kodak Research Laboratories presented a paper covering the history of the motion-picture laboratory which was published in the January 1955 issue of the Society's Journal. Mr. Crabtree's excellent coverage of the origins of the motion-picture laboratory in the early 1890s and of the changes in technology that were introduced through the years up to 1954 is invaluable so it seemed obvious that his paper should be the introduction of the present survey. Here we reproduce the first page of his paper, and the reader is referred to the January 1955 Journal issue for a detailed account of the evolution of the laboratory.
