Owing to the temporary elimination of trade with European countries, a condition precipitated by the present war, the prices of some photographic chemicals will be rather unstable for a time. Our future prices and those of your stock dealer, on the Eastman Tested Chemicals affected, will necessarily be subject to changes in accordance with market conditions. This condition is due to the fact that most photographic chemicals or bases for such chemicals are procured in the Foreign Market, and at the present time the stock of some of these chemicals in this country is limited.

The Eastman Rotary Print Trimmer
We sincerely hope that these Unexpected conditions may be relieved shortly and that conditions may become normal before they prove a hardship upon the professional photographer.
As to the supply of Plates, Papers and Eastman Portrait Film, there is no occasion, at present, for alarm, as we always have on hand a large stock of raw materials and will be able to supply the demand for these goods for some time to come regardless of foreign conditions.
No professional photographer or employee can afford to miss the
Eastman School of Professional Photography
The practical value of the instruction received is worth, many times over, the time and expense of attending .
This trimmer is constructed upon an entirely different principle from the ordinary straight blade trimmer. As shown in the illustration, a circular steel disc revolving upon a spindle which is supported by two strong track rods, takes the place of the usual trimming blade. This disc, protected by a heavy wire guard, revolves in contact with the steel plate on the bed of the trimmer, the revolving motion cutting the print and at the same time auto-tomatically keeping the cutting edge of the disc sharp.
A comfortable hand hold makes the trimming movement easy. The disc is made to revolve and the tension maintained by means of a rawhide belt over a small drum attached to the disc.

Art Noveau Leather Cases
A print is slipped under the transparent guide and placed against a ruler at the end, as with any trimmer. A forward motion trims the print. At the backward motion the print is turned and the operation repeated, making it possible to secure great speed in trimming with a much easier and more simple arm movement. New cutting discs are easily attached, when necessary, by removing a lock nut.
