Covers splayed, the dust jacket is lightly worn and the inside flaps are toned. "This account of Ilford Limited, published in its centenary year, traces its foundation, growth, and business traumas. Twice, Kodak tried to take over the company and failed, and between the two world wars Ilford acquired acquired four well-known British companies and their subsidiaries. The 1966 Monopolies Commission Report made it difficult for the company to continue in the mass amateur colour film business, but it fought back and is now best known for its ultra fine grain high-speed black and white films, and more recently for its monochrome printing papers and silver dye-bleach colour products". Book about Film Photography, Ilford Limited. Time Period 1879-1979, World War 1 & World War II. (Business, Business, Photography, Silver).
