- A Kodak darkroom matting easel that can accommodate paper up to 11x14” in size. Darkroom easels [also called darkroom frames] are used during development to enlarge photographs - they hold the paper flat under the adjustable metal frame and keep the paper properly framed. The easel consists of a wooden base with a raised metal frame around the perimeter - along two sides are wider metal pieces with ruler marks along them. Overlapping in the middle of the board are two adjustable metal pieces that lie flat against the wood. On the left-hand short side is a short metal arm with a spring that can be hooked onto the frame to lift it off the board.

Three clasps on the lid, the centre one has a keyhole, no key. The handle on the lid may have been compressed paper or leather, but has been wrapped in black electrical tape so only the original metal loops and brackets remain. The carry strap attaches to both short sides with metal clips and is made of brown leather - the strap has a buckle that is undone so the two halves hang separately at the sides. Throughout the exterior are various travel stickers and labels, mostly torn.The interior of the case is lined with black paper and the bulk of the body is comprised of a particleboard insert separated into three compartments that sits on braces near the bottom, creating a hidden compartment underneath.Contents of the box include various camera accessories and equipment, as well as a collection of manuals for various film exposures. Includes a light reflector in a white bag with blue edges, a flash mount in a handmade red bag and the flash mount’s cords in a different dark red velvet bag (also in that bag are two extended triggers), a “Rolleflex” lens in a brown leather pouch inside a purple Crown Royal bag, eight manuals in a white “Canadian National Hotels” bag, two different sized yellow filters in clear plastic cases, and in a square cardboard box are two screws, a grey cable, a square lens and a 250 mm focuser, and a lens block.

- Description
- One cardboard box of Kodak Dry Mounting Tissue, used to bind a print to a mounting surface such as a board by using a hot press. According to the instructions on the box, a sheet of tissue is to be trimmed to match the size of the print and then placed into a dry mounting heat press with the tissue between the print and the surface it is being mounted to. Once in place, the hot press applies heat and pressure, fusing the print to the mount without the use of liquid adhesives, which might create rippling.
