Summary

Black and white, half plate glass negative featuring an aerial view of the Kodak Australasia Pty Ltd factory at Abbotsford, circa 1930s. This oblique view looks north west and shows the multistorey curved building on Southampton crescent and several factory buildings in the lower centre foreground. The majority of the image is filled with suburban streets and houses stretching to the horizon.

This is one of nine black and white half plate glass negatives in an original Austral Plates box. It 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.
