- Description
- Kodak 3-inch square filter with original box. (a) The original box consists of a top (lid) and a bottom. The top of the yellow coloured box is square and measures 8.2cm x 8.2cm, which is slightly larger than the 3-inch filter allowing the box to safely store the object. On the face of the lid “Kodak” has been written inside of a red coloured box, which is attached to a black coloured box with the word “filter” written inside. Below this “3-INCH SQUARE” has been (machine) printed in black lettering. Along the viewer left and right sides of the box a half circular cutout is present to allow for easier removal of the box’s lid. Much like the face of the box lid, the front side of the box also has the company name “Kodak” written inside of the red coloured box, which is attached to a black coloured box with the word “filter” printed inside. Next to the company and product names “3-INCH SQUARE” is (machine) printed in black lettering. Below this an ink stamp has been applied, possibly by Nick himself, and reads: “N.D.03.” This stamp has been smudged slightly distorting the mark, although it is still legible. This code symbolizes the colour of the filter, which is a deep neutral slightly warm grey colour that has a neutral density to reduce very bright sunlight, which has a fine mark from bonding agent breakdown. The back of the lid has all of the manufacturer information in red which reads: “EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY” “MADE IN ROCHESTER N.Y. U.S.A. T.M. REGISTERED U.S. PAT. OFF.” On the inside of the lid, on the same side as the manufacturer information, “Code No. 4767” “KP 51378” “printed in U.S.A.” has been (machine) printed. When looking at the inside of the lid it becomes apparent that the information on the boxes lid would have been printed as a whole on the glossy-style paper before being adhered to the cardboard lid. (b)The bottom of the filter’s case is made from plain black cardboard that contains no writing. The inside of the box’s bottom does have a cushioned material that would have supported the object and eliminated any concerns of scratching. (c) The Kodak filter would have been used for printing onto UV sensitive papers. The glass filter absorbs light and only transmits the UV radiation to sharpen prints. The filter measures approximately 7.6cm or 3-inches. Around the edges of the clear glass is a black border. At the top of the border the words: “DEN. 0.30” has been painted in gold, which represents the colour code of the filter. Along the bottom of the border the letter “V” has been painted in gold. This information has also been written on the reverse of the object.

- Description
- Kodak 3-inch square Wratten filter with original box.(a) The original box consists of a top (lid) and a bottom. The top of the yellow coloured box is square and measures 8.2cm x 8.2cm, which is slightly larger than the 3-inch filter allowing the box to safely store the object. The face of the lid contains the following words: “Kodak” “WRATTEN FILTER” “(IN B GLASS)” which has been (machine) printed. Below this the manufacturer information has been printed and reads: “MADE IN ROCHESTER, N.Y., U.S.A. BY” “EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY” “T.M. REGISTERED U.S. PAT. OFF.” Along the viewer left and rights side of the box a half circular cutout is present to allow for easier removal of the box’s lid. Both the front and back of the box has the company name, “Kodak” “WRATTEN FILTER” (machine) printed. An ink stamp has been hand applied, possibly by Nick Morant himself, to both the front and back of the box`s edges and reads: “85C” “3** Sq.” “Code 4417” “KP 34344B” “Printed in U.S.A.” in black letters. The code 85C represents the colour code, which would have been a light orange and would have helped correct bluish casts that often occur when photographing outdoors. The 85C series filter would have decreased the colour temperature from 5500-3800 degrees Kelvin. When looking at the inside of the lid it becomes apparent that the original material used for the structural security of the box would have been covered in a paper that would have had the information, specified above, printed on glossy-style paper before meticulously being adhered to the lid. Also on the inside of the lid in blue pen “85-C Daylite Filter for Type F Kodachrome on Ektachrome Type F`s.” has been written, possibly by Nicholas Morant. (b) The bottom of the box has the plain white cardboard with a black covering that contains no writing. The inside of the box’s bottom no longer has the original cushioned material that would have supported the object. Several folded and layered pieces of cotton-style tissue have been neatly ordered to prevent scratching to the objects’ surface. (c) The Kodak filter would have been used for printing onto UV sensitive papers. The glass filter absorbs light and only transmits the UV radiation to sharpen prints. The filter measures approximately 7.6 cm or 3 inches. Around the edges of the clear glass is a black border. At the top of the border the words: “FILTER NO. 85C” has been painted in gold. Along the viewer left side of the object there is also three straight lines in gold. Both of these patterns are mirrored on the reverse of the filter.

The top of the yellow coloured box is square and measures 8.2 cm x 8.2 cm, which is slightly larger than the 3-inch filter allowing the box to safely store the object. The face of the lid contains the following words: “Kodak” “WRATTEN FILTER” “(IN B GLASS)” which has been printed. Above the company logo a yellow sticker has been adhered and reads: “SOLE IMPORTER INTO CANADA” “CANADIAN KODAK CO., LIMITED” “TORONTO” in blue letters. Handwritten in blue pen on the viewer right side of “(IN B GLASS)” the filter colour code “#81EF” has been written; on the viewer right side of the same part “31”Sq” has been written. Below this the manufacturer information has been printed and reads: “MADE IN ROCHESTER, N.Y., U.S.A. BY” “EASTMAN KODAK COMPANY” “T.M. REGISTERED U.S. PAT. OFF.” Along the viewer left and rights side of the box a half circular cut-out is present to allow for easier removal of the box’s lid. The front of the box has the company name, “Kodak” “WRATTEN FILTER” printed. Handwritten in blue pen “#81EF” and “31”Sq” have been applied to the box. The code 81EF represents the colour code, which would have been a light balancing yellow and would have enabled minor adjustments in the colour quality of illumination to obtain cooler bluish or warmer yellowish colour rendering. When looking at the inside of the lid it becomes apparent that the original material used for the structural security of the box would have been covered in a paper that would have had the information, specified above, printed on glossy-style paper before meticulously being adhered to the lid. Also on the inside of the lid, in what has been referred previously as the back of the box, the Kodak company has printed “CODE 4417” “KP 34344A.” (b) The bottom of the box has the plain paper material with a black covering that contains no writing. The inside of the box’s bottom have a cushioned material that supports the object eliminating the possibility of scratching. (c) The Kodak filter would have been used for printing onto UV sensitive papers. The glass filter absorbs light and only transmits the UV radiation to sharpen prints. The filter measures approximately 7.6 cm or 3 inches. Around the edges of the clear glass is a black border. At the top of the border the words: “FILTER NO. 81EF” has been painted in gold. Along the viewer left side of the object there is another figure possibly an “I” or “1”also in gold, but is difficult to make out with any degree of certainty. Both of these patterns are mirrored on the reverse of the filter.

- Description
- The toy penguin is tin and covered with a black and white fabric. His stomach and underneath his chin, and arms the fabric is white. The remaining body is black fabric. The penguin still has both of his plastic eyes, which seem to be in good condition. His nose and feet appear to be tin and are painted orange with black detailing for the nails and nostrils. The wind-up device, located at the viewer left, is also assumed to be tin and has been painted purple. The penguin also has a orange bow tie located just beneath the neck where you would expect a bow tie to be. There is identical blue patent stickers underneath the arms on both the viewer left and right side. The patent sticker contains the words “TRADE MARK” with the MT (Masudaya) logo directly underneath and “MODERN TOYS P. PATENT” “MADE IN JAPAN” all in silver lettering. The patent sticker on the viewer right is more worn and has suffered some discolouring. The penguin also has metal wheels on the bottom of the feet. The penguin is still functioning; when it is wound the head, wings and mouth move and the wheels underneath move the penguin forward.Made in Japan.
