Physical Description: 40 photographs : col. slides ; 10 x 8.2 cm Transparencies mounted as lantern slides.

History / Biographical: While most lantern slides are made of images that have been drawn, painted, printed, or developed directly onto a pane of glass, this collection consists of cellulose-based transparencies that have been placed within a paper border and secured between 2 panes of glass. Colour positive cellulose-based film first became available to consumers in 1941 when Kodak introduced Kodacolor print film, a process that involved taking photographs on black and white film and then developing them into full colour positives in a lab. In 1946, Kodak was able to simplify the development process with Ektachrome, which used a colour slide film and also made it much easier for photographers to develop their photos at home. Based on small notches cut into the edge of the films in this collection, these images were taken on Separation Negative 4133, Type 2, which was a type of black and white negative film produced by Kodak.

Scope & Content: Sub-series consists of lantern slides depicting Banff Springs Hotel, Banff Townsite, Lake Louise, Lake O’Hara, travel rides, Bow Lake, Yoho National Park.
