KODAKS

Are you thinking of buying a
Camera. If so it will pay you to
investigate the Kodak
Why? Because the Kodak rep
resents the latest and best improve
ments known to amateur photo
graphy. which took years OF time
and study to work out
Eastman Kodaks are not copied
or patterned afrer other cameras,
but represent the original and best
ideas in the camera field today.
Eastman Kodaks are made so
simple that the smallest child can
operate them and if directions are
followed failures are an lmpossl-
bility.
Why not get the best the 10
dak, not something just as good;
the cost is no more.
