Summary
Black and white photograph of the last Kodak Australasia Pty Ltd inter-department football match, held at Reservoir circa 1980.
This image shows the spectators at the match, a mix of men, women and children.
The game was played between the different coating and emulsions divisions and, according to the donor, ended in a brawl after much consumption of alcohol, an outcome that led to the cancellation of future staff football matches.
This object complements the Kodak Heritage 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.
