These rolls of Kodak Super-XX Pan aerial mapping film, along with their original storage canister and shipping carton, represent the photographic technology used to chart remote and poorly mapped terrain during World War II. Loaded into aerial mapping cameras aboard reconnaissance aircraft, film like this helped produce the topographic imagery that supported Allied operations in the rugged China-Burma-India theater, including the treacherous air routes over the Himalayas known as 'the Hump.'
