A Kodak circular snapshot photograph of a boy paddling in the sea, taken by an unknown photographer, c. 1890.
The photograph shows a young boy paddling as two little children sit in a boat watching.
The photograph was taken with the Kodak camera - a simple, leather-covered wooden box designed for amateur use, which produced circular snapshots two and a half inches in diameter. The camera was sold pre-loaded with film, when the whole film had been exposed the camera was sent back to Kodak who developed it, returning the prints and the reloaded camera.
