Description
Full color 9 3/4″ x 13 1/2″ ad for a choice of all the Kodak Cameras that were available that year. The picture at the top of the ad shows Christmas morning in a house where a Mother and a Father are sitting there watching their two children opening their presents and enjoying Christmas. The headline says that “Kodak suggests a “Give and Take” Christmas!”. There are two sections of information here, the one on the left is labeled “Give Kodak gifts for a happy Christmas” and the one on the right is labeled “Take pictures to save and share the fun”. Then it shows the six camera groups they were selling. First was the Brownie Starflash Camera for $10.35, then the Brownie Reflex 20 Camera for $22.95, the Brownie Starmatic Cameras for $45.95, the Kodak Pony II Camera for $42.95, the Kodak Automatic 35 Camera for $84.50, the Compact Kodak 300 Projector for $64.50, the Kodak Retina IIIS 35mm Cameras from $157.50 and the Cavalcade 520 Projector for $124.50.
