Specimen Stock printed by American Bank Note Company. The Eastman Kodak Company is a publicly traded American corporation that specializes in a range of products rooted in its historical foundation in analog photography. The company is based in Rochester, New York, and is incorporated in New Jersey. It is particularly renowned for its photographic film products, which it successfully introduced to the mass market.
Kodak originated as a partnership between George Eastman and Henry A. Strong, aimed at creating a roll film camera. Following the launch of the Kodak camera, the company was officially incorporated on May 23, 1892. Under the leadership of Eastman, Kodak evolved into one of the largest manufacturers of film and cameras globally, while also establishing a model of welfare capitalism and fostering a strong relationship with the city of Rochester. Throughout much of the 20th century, Kodak maintained a leading position in the photographic film industry and made significant technological advancements through substantial investments in research and development at Kodak Research Laboratories. The company produced several iconic camera models during this period, including the Brownie and Instamatic. Kodak's influence was so pervasive that the phrase "Kodak moment" became a part of everyday language, signifying a personal experience worthy of being captured for future remembrance.
A stock certificate is issued by businesses, usually companies. A stock is part of the permanent finance of a business. Normally, they are never repaid, and the investor can recover his/her money only by selling to another investor. Most stocks, or also called shares, earn dividends, at the business's discretion, depending on how well it has traded. A stockholder or shareholder is a part-owner of the business that issued the stock certificates.
