What a great adventure story and beautiful restoration.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has just been bested.
Sherlock might as well retire with his Strad and Meerschaum.
olddocfox gets to wear the deerstalker from now on.

 X is for Panatomic- X, Plus- X and Tri- X : the Kodak-made stuff that fed our cameras for years. I bought it in 35 mm cartridges of 20 or 36 exposures, 120 rolls of twelve 2 1/4 x 21/4 or eight 21/4 x 3 1/4 shots and in 25 and 50 sheet boxes of 4x5 and 31/4 x 41/4 cut film. While I used Agfa, Ilford, Fuji and other manufacturer's films, kodak's "X's" were definitely the big three for me! |
