American inventor and entrepreneur (1854–1932), founder of the Eastman Kodak company, whose invention of roll film revolutionized photography and helped make the once-specialized art and craft a popular pastime. Notarized DS, signed “Geo. Eastman,” four pages, 8.5 x 13, February 21, 1911. Agreement between Eastman Kodak and A. Freidrich and Sons in which the contractor agrees to build “a new reinforced concrete building to be known as No. 42, having five stories and a basement, to be located on the premises…known as Kodak Park,” for $63,130.00. Signed on the third page by Eastman, who has also initialed a rider affixed to the second page. Document is still in its original legal folio. In fine condition, with expected folds, punch holes to top, and a uniform shade of toning. An excellent example of Kodak’s expanding empire.
