Week 4 Image

So this week's image is small but relevent. The image is an old Kodak ad for the Brownie camera back in the 1900s for a magazine.  Kodak handed out cameras in 1888, and was the first camera to be handled by everyone. Normally cameras would be difficult because you had to work the camera and develop the film and such. The main topic we learned of this week was photography from chapter 9 so I thought an image from Kodak's history would be very relevent since it's one of the most popular photographic companies. I picked this piece in particular because it shows what the camera would look like, in essence and how much (only $1.00). The font is a bold trajan pro type.
