Summary

This showroom appears to be dedicated to the professional photography and graphics market only, and it sold specialist cameras, viewers, printers, copiers, papers and other products.

This photograph is part of the Kodak collection of products, promotional materials, photographs and working life artefacts collected from Kodak Australasia in 2005, when the Melbourne manufacturing plant at Coburg closed down.

Kodak manufactured and distributed a wide range of photographic products to Australasia, such as film, paper, chemicals, cameras and miscellaneous equipment.
