The Evolution of Eastman Color Motion Picture Films

Wesley T. Hanson

The author became active in color film design shortly after the introduction (1935) of the Kodachrome amateur reversal film, created by Mannes and Godowsky. In this article, he traces the history of Eastman Color films from Troland's patent on monopack film and Fischer's discovery of color couplers, to the completion of the first negative-positive Kodacolor film system for still photography.
