The Kodak Petite was marketed towards women. This model was sold in five different colours and special art-deco patterns (Kodak Petite, http://kodak.digitalfx.tv/html/pet.html). Kodak Canada was founded by Eastman Kodak in 1899 in a Toronto shop where employees cut sheet film and fitted lenses on cameras to support the growing potential for a photographic market in Canada. As Canadian interest in photography grew, the company expanded across the country throughout the 20th century to produce in all aspects of photography including still and movie cameras, film, x-ray film, photocopy paper, and photographic chemicals under many popular names including Brownie, Kodacolor, Carousel, and Supermatic.
Function
To record still images on photographic film.
