Andre Alves Rochester NY Kodak, Xerox and Bausch and Lomb New York

Andre Alves from Rochester NY remembers the yellow Kodak photographic paper boxes and envelopes with the made in Rochester NY writing on them. No matter where you purchased the photographic paper it would say photo paper in four or five different languages and it was light sensitive. I have used Kodak photographic photo paper purchased in Asia, South America, North America, Europe and they all would look pretty much the same.

The same was true for Kodak’s films, color or black and white. 12, 24 or 36 exposure rolls, 30 feet rolls or the movie films they all would say Kodak made in Rochester NY. I remember bulk loading my own film growing up and all the way to RIT. Bulk film was a great way to get a lot of film for a good discount mentions Andre Alves from Rochester NY. Film however was a little different; depending where you purchased it could have a different emulsion in order to compensate for the type of lighting depending on the geographic location.

The first time I came across a Bausch and Lomb product was with the old Kodak Brownie cameras. I remember the Bausch and Lomb optical engraving right under the lens. Some Kodak Brownie cameras would have that engraving in brass. Again the (made in Rochester NY) was also present at the vintage Rochester NY, Kodak made Brownie cameras with Bausch and Lomb optical.

Xerox machines have been around for a really long time, since early 1960s, back then the Xerox 914 machine became really popular and generated Xerox almost 60 million dollars in revenue. 60 million dollars in 1961 was a lot of money. If you think about it, a Ford Mustang in 1960 would not cost more than $2000 to $2500 brand new mentions Andre Alves. Just imagine how many Mustangs you could buy with 60 million dollars! I am not sure if a Ford Mustang would be the best car to own it in Rochester NY. Rochester NY is well known for having nasty and cold winters adds Andre from Rochester.

Today our local Rochester NY industry has changed a lot. Kodak and Xerox are no longer Rochester NY biggest employers. A few years back Kodak imploded several buildings on Dewey Avenue in order to try to re size and re shape the company. I remember all the film donations Kodak did when they sold their warehouses in Spencerport NY.

Andre from Rochester NY remembers going to the old Kodak warehouse off Manitou Road. One time I helped one of my RIT professors load up his car with photo paper and film for a class project we were going to do at the Rochester Institute of Technology remembers Andre Alves.

The Kodak warehouse is no longer there and no one knows how long Kodak is going to be around. For about a month or so the media has been saying that Kodak could go bankrupted. The Rochester NY people and Kodak employees hope that Kodak will be able to work things out and be in business for another one hundred years.

Andre from Rochester NY mentions a conversation with the President of Nazareth College Daan Braveman in Pittsford NY and Mr. Braveman talked about several valid points on how Rochester NY has an amazing higher education system that offer undergraduate and graduate programs. How a lot of people come to Rochester NY in order to get educated. I really identified with Daan Braveman’s point of view says Andre Alves. Mr. Alves came to Rochester NY to attend school and become more educated and more prepared in order to become a successful business man and entrepreneur.
