Legendary modernist designers Charles and Ray Eames produced 125 short films between 1950 and 1982, using the medium as a vehicle for experimentation and education. The best-remembered of these, the 1968 and 1977 "Powers of Ten" films, were selected for preservation in the National Film Library in 1998. 22 x 8.5 inches unfolded, folded five times and measuring 3.75 x 8.5 inches when folded.
