Died. George Eastman, 77, board chairman of Eastman Kodak Co.; by his own hand (pistol); in Rochester, N. Y. He left a note: "My work is done. Why wait?'' Born in Waterville, N. Y. in 1854, he started Eastman Dry Plate Co. in Rochester in 1880. First man to realize the possibilities of amateur as opposed to professional photography, he devoted himself to making cameras simple, handy, foolproof. The first Kodak appeared in 1888, contained film for 100 pictures which, when taken, were sent back (camera & all) to the Kodak factory for development. Hence the famed slogan: "You press the button. We do the rest." The development of a flexible, transparent photographic film in 1889 coincided with Thomas Alva Edison's early cinema experiments. Edison bought $2.50 worth of Eastman film, turned to an assistant and said: "That's it [the film]--now work like hell [on the camera]."

Eastman Kodak today is credited with doing 90% of U. S. photographic business and more than 60% of world business. From 1880 to 1925 the company was almost entirely a one-man affair, Eastman personally making every decision of import. In 1925 he retired as president and general manager, became chairman of the board. Said he: "The remaining years are very precious to me and I am now doing what the movies call a 'fade-out.'" A thoroughgoing philanthropist, he gave away some $75,000,000, probably retained only a small Kodak interest. Major gifts were: to Massachusetts Institute of Technology, $19,500,000 (he was Technology's "Mysterious Mr. Smith"); to the University of Rochester, $35,000,000; to Tuskegee and Hampton Institutes, $4,362,000; to employes in the form of stock distributions, $6,000,000. His civic improvements in Rochester were the Rochester Dental Dispensary, Rochester Chamber of Commerce Building, Eastman School of Music, Eastman Theatre (now closed), Rochester Civic Orchestra. To Rome, London, Paris, Stockholm and Brussels he gave million-dollar dental & throat clinics. His private interests included art, music, big game hunting (in Africa, with the Martin Johnsons), calendar reform. He whittled, baked cakes & pies, collected orchids and firearms, was awakened every morning by pipe organ. He never married.
