Film used to come in rolls of 20 and 36 exposures. There was no 24-- that came
about the late 70s, early 80s. I would recommend taking advantage of the custom
lab for this, although you'll probably get OK results from anywhere.
The images will be very faded, but you'll get something. E6 is still around, if
it were E4 you'd have a problem. I've even had old 'G' movie film come out
after 30 years in the can.

Subject: [pure-silver] Old roll of E6
Ok this one is a bit odd.. Found an old roll of slide film today. It was
stuffed in a bag and I have no idea where it came from. It could be a roll I
took and the wife in packing "combined" ie moved it outside of its normal place
and neither of us noticed it was there. It might be a roll that I didn't even
take from a move of either of our parents. Not likely mine, but might be hers
or her mothers brother that took it.
I see no date on it. I also see no dx code on it either. Its Kodak
Ektachrome 64 ER 135-20. What is weird to me is that its a 20 roll exposure
of film. Maybe I have, but I have bought film in 24 and 36, but honestly don't
remember a 20 roll. Yes I have used short rolls of 8. Yet I don't remember
the 20 roll, but then again I am not as young as I used to be.
I do have a couple of hunches on what it might be. One or two of them might be
priceless to me. Getting E6 done here is tougher than it once was. Most
places are shipping it somewhere and if this is going to be done by anyone, it
will be done in the same building I am leaving it at. No transport of any kind
any where. Been there done that, they have lost that. Ordered a kit today to
process it myself if need be. Any advise and or information would be
appreciated. Thank you in advance.
