William Kollecker (seated with camera) and employees outside of the Kollecker Kodak and Gift Shop on Main Street, August 1914. Kollecker came to Saranac Lake for his health as a young man and started his career working for Lake Placid photographer William Cheesman. Kollecker’s shop sold photographic prints, postcards, gifts, and of course, genuine Kodak products. Kollecker was a prolific photographer and his shop was known for its elaborate window displays, especially around Christmastime. The store closed when Kollecker died in 1962.
