Kodak Colorama

The Colorama was a large photographic display located on the east balcony inside New York City's Grand Central Terminal from 1950 to 1990, with 565 being made. Used as advertisements by the Eastman Kodak Company, the photographs were backlit (with a mile of tubing) transparencies tall by wide. The photographs were described as "The World's Largest Photographs". The works did not prominently use African-American models until 1969.
