Polychrome Corporation, a brainchild of Mr. Halpern, is now a major part of Kodak Co. and continues to live on. But the small company spirit died on Jan 1. 1998 when the company became a part of DIC-Kodak joint venture. This blog is dedicated to the memory of those who proudly call themselves "Polychromer". ..... Ken Shimazu shimazukenichi@gmail.com

More Yonkers photos from Mr. Kawaguchi
Mr. Kawaguchi sent in more pictures he took in 1988-89 while he was readying to begin planning of th Gunma plant. Those who are familiar with Yonker HQ may recognize the cafeteria area, outside views and some well used machinaries. You instantly recognize why we were looking around to locae a new modern factory. You of course know that we later located and constructed the Columbus, Georgia, factory later on and aboandoned the Yonker facilities altogether. Thank you again Mr. Kawaguchi!
