[pure-silver] Re: Transporting exposed sheet film

As Frank says, film does not stick together unless some moisture has infiltrated the stack. 220 film is wound on top of itself with no paper interleaving.
I have on many occasions, transported sheet film loose in it's original box, w/o interleaving paper, in order to get it home for processing.
You really don't have anything to worry about. But, as Frank says, you could save the original interleaving paper and re-insert it between exposed sheets. I don't believe this is necessary (and would be a PITA) as I've never done it and I've never had any problem.

Hi all.
This June, I'll be spending some time in Anza Borrego Desert State park. A friend who lives nearby (Aguanga, near Mount Palomar) has offered me the use of his 4x5 and 3.25x4.25 Graphic equipement and sheet film holders. All I have to do is bring my own film, 4x5 Tri- X and 4x5 & 3.25x4.25 Efke 25. I'll be bring the exposed film back and be developing it in my darkroom at home.
My question concerns the transportation of the film back on the airplane. Obviously I'll be using the same film boxes. Are there any precautions I should take? My worry is that the sheets of film will stick together.
Anybody else here done a similar thing? Any tips would be appreciated. 

Regards,
Bogdan
