Summary
A customer is looking at a Kodak Tele ExtraLite camera with a sales assistant at the staff shop in Building 9, Amenities, at Kodak Australasia's Coburg factory, January 1981.
The colour slide is from a 'photo file' contained in a green binder. The file covered a range of topics including advertising; the newly built distribution centre; silver recovery; staff and Kodak Australasia Pty Ltd branches around Australia. The slides were divided into two sections entitled 'Kodak Buildings Coburg' and 'Kodak Buildings Interstate'.
This object is part of 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.
