In the early 20th century, Eastman Kodak had grown to a large enough workforce that in June, 1920 it began publishing its own in-house magazine. This was titled The Kodak Magazine, or later, Kodak: A Magazine for Eastman Employees. Its articles highlighted different aspects of the company (including its sponsored clubs, sports teams, and social activities); but it also served to promote photography among Kodak's own employees.

A large number of issues of The Kodak Magazine are held at the Rush Rhees Library at the University of Rochester, as part of an extensive collection of Kodak company material donated by Kodak in 2004[1].
