Title
Panchromatic Film
Date
1906 – 1923
Material
cardboard; paper;
Dimensions
1.5 x 10.0 x 13.7 cm
Description
One box of a dozen 9x12cm Eastman Commercial Panchromatic Films - unopened. The box has a large paper label on the lid containing the manufacturer and development details throughout, as well as “9.80” written in pencil at the top. The edges and bottom of the box are sealed with brown paper adhesive tape, the right-hand side is stamped with “DEVELOP BEFORE APRIL 1923.”Panchromatic film is a kind of black-and-white emulsion that is sensitive to all visible light wavelengths and creates realistic photographs - it could also be used successfully for colour and black-and-white motion pictures as early as 1913. One downside to panchromatic film was that it had to be developed in complete darkness as it was sensitive to the red lights standard in many darkrooms.
