Question
Hello,
I apologize that this is not a "careers" question, but history of photography was listed as one of your areas of expertise.

I'm doing research for a novel that in part takes place around the turn of the century. My question is in regards to the first Kodak Brownie that came out in 1900 - I can't find information anywhere about the development process for this camera. It seems it was sold with a development kit, but that's as far as I've gotten. I'd appreciate any help shedding light on this!

Thank you,
Sarah
