I would have mistaken this for Technicolor if it was not for http://1000words.kodak.com/post/?ID=2982503

It seems like the two had a little rivalry going on with colour film but I imagine in the early days Technicolor was far more relevant for motion pictures. Technicolor was just starting to be used for actual films the same year this test reel was made.

I'm now quite curious to why Kodak did not bother pursuing this further. They were too busy with the still pictures market to care?
