I can't authenicate your poster, but I have a collection of some old Kodak
TV commercials, and the theme seems right. Kodak's ads used to be big on
sentiment and children growing up. Does it have a corporate trademark on
it?
In the 1930's the logo would have been a yellow rectangle with the name
Kodak in red block letters.
