It would greatly add to the value of the Collection of Photographs which
has been established in the Map Room of the Royal Geographical Society, if
all the Fellows who have taken photographs during their travels, would
forward copies of them to the Map Curator, by whom they would be acknow
ledged. Should the donor have purchased the photographs, it will be useful
for reference if the name of the photographer and his address are given.
As a rule, Cameras have either to be slung over the shoulder,
or carried in the hand.
THE
Pocket Kodak
Slips into the Pocket,
and is hardly felt, as it weighs only ounces.
The POCKET KODAK holds 12 exposures of Film
at one time, and is unloaded and reloaded in daylight.
It has a large finder, and a red window at the back,
which shows just how far to turn the key, and how many
exposures have been made.
It contains the simplest shutter ever constructed, one
button sets and releases it, and makes either instantaneous
or time exposures.
It is covered with either red or black leather. Perfect
in workmanship. Rich and dainty in finish.
Pictures made with the POCKET KODAK are so
sharp and distinct that they are capable of being enlarged
up to 8J X 6J inches, and sometimes larger.
