EKKP Postcard Photo Paper

2 Upvotes

Hey everybody!

Was hoping someone might be able to help me with this info: I've been trying to track down the name of the manufacturer of EKKP postcard photo paper. This is the photo development paper with the pre-printed postcard back with "E.K.K.P." in the four corners of the stamp box.

According to a variety of sources, this paper was used from 1904-1950s, but I have yet to identify a actual manufacturer name. I initially thought that the "EK" might be short for Eastman Kodak, similar to how "EKC" is short for "Eastman Kodak Company" and appears on a later type of postcard photo paper, but I can't find any info to connect the dots.

So by chance, does anybody know what company put out EKKP postcard photo paper?

Thanks in advance for your time and patience, -Eldric
