These two photographs belong to the first part of the 220 TXP 320 film
developed in Microdol X full strength shared between the 3.5F Planar
and the SL 66 Distagon 4/80 (the explanation is below ).
The first one represents a little story you can read in the caption:

The second one is more evident:

> you start the film again from the paper covering the film end; I did

> mechanism was jammed by the film, I don't know the reason but it was
> jammed. I decided to rewind the film in the darkness and to use the
> other 12 frames for the SL 66, its magazine has a lever to change the
> counter from 12 to 24 exposures without to change the pressure plate
> position (works like in the TLR). I advanced the first 12 exposed
> frames taken with the 3.5F capping the lens and started from the frame
> number 13, I obtained the 24 complete exposures without frames
> overlapping (the SL66 film insert also has a film feeler mechanism, it
> looks different but works like the TLR automat).
