You're thinking of the Kodak "Picture CD" that came several years
later. The original Kodak "Photo CD" (notice the subtly different
name) came out in the early 1990's and stored up to 100 photos, each
one in several resolutions. It was a proprietary image format and
failed in the same way that pretty much every proprietary image format
has ever since. When they went to the ""Picture CD" it was just
standard JPEG images at 1200 x 1800.

I'm pretty sure Photoshop will still read the old Photo CD format
images.
