On this episode of Our American Stories, before digital photography took over, Kodachrome was one of the most famous color films in the world. Its rich tones and sharp detail made it a favorite among professionals, travelers, and families for generations. But when Kodak stopped making it, there was only one lab left on Earth that could still process it.
That lab was Dwayne’s Photo in Parsons, Kansas. As the end drew near, photographers from around the world rushed to send in their final rolls. The family behind Dwayne’s shares the story of the remarkable final days of a film that helped define color photography.
