Making KODAK Film 1st Edition are available for sale.
Making KODAK Film, 2nd Edition is OUT OF PRINT.
Without notification the local printer who has printed all of the 2nd edition copies has closed their doors, is not giving me my files, is not communicating, and is auctioning off their equipment.
I am donating my notes, photographs, and copyrights to the University of Rochester's Rare Books and Collections Library, Rochester, NY.
The 1st edition used a different printer. It is 94 pages, provides a detailed description of the current film manufacturing process at a modest price. Used copies are listed on abebooks.com for $100 to $200+! My price is $50.
My thought is to sell the 1st edition to individuals and save the few copies of the second edition for institutions that can share it with a broader audience. To do this I have raised the price of the 2nd edition to a level that an institution can afford but may be not an individual unless they are very serious about obtaining the book. Used booksellers will probably charge more than $300.
The second edition has 470 pages, it includes historical background and many more illustrations that were made exclusively for the book.
I have sold thousands of copies to individuals and institutions in 55 countries satisfying my personal goal of documenting how my fellow Kodak employees manufacture film.
