In 1932, George Eastman, owner of Kodak purchased the Nagel Camerawerk in Stuttgart, Germany.  Dr. Nagel was respected internationally as one of the top camera designers in the German Photographic industry. Eastman agreed to let him run the company his way and to ship the cameras with Kodak’s name on them. Kodak acquired a prestige camera line with little more than the flourish of a pen.
