It was SO-015 and then ? 2205? It was processed in Dektol. Came in 8x10 sheet
and possibly other sizes. It was a film. Print material? I don’t recall Kodak
competing with Ilford on the direct print from slide material.

Didn't Kodak market a paper for direct
printing in b&w from slides? Does anyone
remember the name?
Laurence, as long as there's no hot water,
plastic is easy to work with.

I have drawn to a shuddering halt I’m my search for the perfect reversal print
recipe. I was using a magic lantern slide, and a Stouffer test wedge as test
images, contact printing onto the enlarger base board. The bronze u bend
fitting below my darkroom sink, has sprung a hole. The darkroom was probably
constructed forty years ago, so dissembling and replacing the plumbing, is not
totally trivial. If I can’t repair the bronze fitting, I’ll probably go with
plastic, as being more resistant to chemical mayhem.

Here's an amusing quote from Anchell:
"If the viewer stands only two or three inches away from
ANY print, it may appear fuzzy. However, only teachers, and students who are
trying to learn spotting techniques, should look that closely.
Anyone else is not appreciating the photograph."
