I don't think I'd bother sending it out nor would I even think that much
will show up. E6 has poor image stability and if the images have been on
there any length of time they will be faded. You probably get chemistry to
do more than one roll and then a split of any kind could help. I'd bet a
time of 4:45 to 5:00 base on normal temp - 96 so trim that back and shoot
for 8:00 at 75F. would be fine. I'd say keeping it cool would be OK , you
are NOT going to get good color. So just look for images you can scan.
good luck.

E 6 in my area requires for the most part sending it out, or there is one
lab that will do it but they don't sound like they do enough of it that they
would be any better than what I can do. Everyone else ships it somewhere
and this won't be lost in shipping. Will see how it comes out. Faded I
expect, but might get something photoshop can help with or take it to black
and white. Then again the whole roll could be blank. With a rangefinder he
could have taken the entire roll with the lens cap on and not known it.

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.

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.
