[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 384786, member: 6277"] Brings back some very old memories. (1979) Also reminds me of my first photofinishing job before one hour labs. You had to sit in the dark and remove the film from the canisters. Then you had to put a sticky number on it and the matching one on the bag. Remember, you are in total darkness. Then you had to make sure you had the emulsion side down and slice it onto a strip of plastic, the leader. The you went to the next roll and did the same thing except you spliced it onto the first roll. You continued till you had all the film spliced together and filled up a reel. Could be 100 rolls or so. this could take an hour or more depending on how fast/good you were. Then load it in the machine and start it up. Then leave the room through a light trap room. [/QUOTE]
