The first roll of film I ever developed was Verichrome, done under a ruby

in my mind.
I'll bet everyone here over 60 or so have been there, I surely have.
I also had a small contact printer given to me by my dad who was away in
the navy.
I had a problem. I went to the local 5-10 cent store and bought a red
light bulb. It was far from a safety light. Finally realized that and
bought a real safety lamp.
