For other senses of this word, see
autograph (disambiguation).The Autographic system for
roll film was launched by
Kodak in
1914, and allowed the photographer to add written information on the film at the time of exposure. The system was patented by
Henry Jacques Gaisman, inventor and safety razor manufacturer.
George Eastman purchased the rights for US$300,000. It consisted of a tissue-like carbon paper sandwiched between the film and the paper backing. Text was entered using a metal stylus, and would appear in the margin of the processed print. The system was never very popular, and was discontinued in
1932.
