Instead, top of the list would be their own cell phone &#8211; and any decent cell phone is a smart phone complete with a built in camera for selfies and for scenes and others. Any image once taken can be shared anywhere, any time.<\/p>\n<p>This November, 1948 Kodak ad in Popular Mechanics shows the many different Kodak gift ideas offered after WW2. \u00a0Those who use film today, or want a Kodak product for the collection, can visit one of our events and they may see just the right camera!<\/p>\n<p>Once again, we owe my good friend and fellow PHSC member, George Dunbar, a debt of gratitude for not only discovering this wonderful advertisement but for thoughtfully sharing it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toronto.
