One of us is in error.  Or is my age creeping up on me?.  I do NOT 
remember Kodachrome?

ever being available in 120 (or 620) sizes; or I would have used it in 
my Medalist or?

Rolleiflex.  My father used KodaCOLOR in his Super Ikonta B.?
?

The only way I used Kodachrome in MF cameras was in the "plate" backs 
for the Medalist or?

Rollei..  Of course my cousin Sam devised and sold his "Adapto-back" to 
use 828 film in?

the Medalist. Even made a model for the Rollei.?
?

Are you sure you used 120 Kodachrome?  The world wants to know.?
