How many other film products can get that kind of treatment?

Kodachrome was also incorporated into the name of a famous state park in Utah near Bryce Canyon National Park. Having visited the park, I can say it lives up to his namesake.

Kodak has retired the brand because digital photography has caught up to the film qualities expressed in Kodachrome. Declining sales and the fact that there was a solitary processing facility left meant that it no longer made financial sense to market.
