early Kodakchrome test



circa 1922. Color still looks great!

I also find it interesting to see how standards in "beauty" have changed, both in terms of physical characteristics and behavior.

Ko-da-crome, such nice bright colors...

I once bought a slide projector at a garage sale, and the tray contained a bunch of slides. The Ektachromes were all red, but the Kodakchromes looked beautiful still (I think the slides were around 25-30 years old).

It'd be interesting to know what the models were saying during this. I'm assuming that it's questions/comments on the direction, but knowing that nothing would be heard could mean that it was anything, really.

Sound didnt really start until 1927 (with the Jazz Singer) so it may have been related to directions, or it could have been Acting. It would be nice to know.
