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.

Tokyo mini reunion 2
Mr. Matsuura organized another mini reunion in Tokyo this time with Dr. Oe, almost single handedly built Gunma plant and moved on to become CEO of DIC, Mr. Suwa who served as the head of customer service for Polychrome Japan and Mr. Adachi one time plant manager of Gunma in addition to Mr. Hayakawa and Mr. Matsuura himself. We had a good time reminiscing old Polychrome and those who were at Polychrome Yonkers, Clark and Osterode. Mr. Matsuura is thinking of another mini reunion this fall. Dr. Oe would like to visit Boston, NY and Washington DC sometime in future; a good opportunity for us to get together in New York.
