Ta-Dah! :D

I know people have already done this before, but I decided to start a collection as well. I think I want to collect them all, especially ones from different countries where they have their own brands 😀

...now I need to go buy a Kodachrome one just for the sake of this! :bang:

So if anyone has spares....😀

Note: these are actually all empty ones from a friend at a photo lab 😛 I am collecting empty ones.

You should shoot it all and collect the unprocessed exposed cartridges. Leave them as a time capsule.

Yeah... I found a box of exposed 35mm cartridges in the basement from the 70s kind of like that...

I wonder if more Elvis pictures are down there...

Very cool idea. Update the thread regularly. 🙂 I can send you a roll of Centuria 200. PM me if you want it.

 

[Roger Hicks]

Rollei R3, Paterson Acupan 200, Kodachrome 64, maybe some older stuff still (my wife says she knows where it may be). PM me if interested (obviously I don't want to waste money on posting duplicates).

I like your blog too.

Cheers,

R.

wow, interesting, i wanted to do the same, but the lab i always send my rolls to never give me back my empty canisters, even though i sometimes asked for it.. maybe i should ask them again this time round! haha! actually, i had this Sunny 100 canister, but sadly it was not in good condition, because the man who developed it used a can opener to pry up the canister, so i threw it away..

hmm what are the two canisters on the right of the lomo canister?

nice set of copics btw...

 

[SimonSawSunlight]

I might have some odd ones (former GDR etc.), if you want them I can bring some along to london in may.
ps: I also have the boxes I think.

Lots cheaper that collecting cameras too !

Anyone know if someone if anyone is "officially" storing samples of the various kinds of film?

 

[Roberto V.]

I might have some Adox canisters and some other stuff, I'll check for you.

I have in my collection this old roll of Ektachrome that came inside my Contaflex. I have no idea how old it is, but I do know that it was made after '75, when it received its last CLA

I changed the photo to a better one but on the previous photo you say, the last 3 canisters on the right of the Lomo canisters are: Elite Chrome 100, Kodacolor 200 and Kodak BW400CN 🙂

Not that I know of but I wouldn't mind doing it 😛!

I have PMed some of you 😀 Thank you soooo much! Haha! I'm definitely going to make a shelf or something when the collection starts to grow!

I recently got some old film boxes off ebay just because they made such nice props.

Yeah, I was just going to respond that I have some of it, too. Whatever pics I took with it I know they'll never be seen...

Oh, actually i was referring to the other two canisters to the right of the first lomo canister from the left (i'm also confused, i can't rmbr the previous photo..😛), but from your post, now i know that those two are lomo canisters as well.. Haha!😀

I have also done this years ago when I worked for a time with a minilab.
Collected about 300 or so. I lost interest when the minilab was scrapped.
I wish a good hunt! 🙂
