Bernard, welcome! 🙂
Ray, Rodinal was last readily available here in the 1960s, courtesy of Botica Boie. They distributed Agfa, Agfacolor and even Leica (owner was from the family of the 'Ang Tibay' shoe fame). My mom worked there in the early 60s, and she said they had these and the Leica....I still kept asking her why she didn't buy any Leica- I'm sure
they had employee's discounts then. She said she didn't have any idea then that about a decade later she'd bore a Leica/RF freak.. 😀
In the late 1980s, Photokina, Agfa's later distributor said they had Rodinal, but I never saw it in their shops- only Agfapan. My Rodinal had been sent from abroad. Some German email-pals sent me a 1 litre bottle...this should last some time.
Kat- Colpan is the Chinese film available in Hidalgo. But I don't want to advertise Columbia. Lucky is no longer available here. BTW, a friend now stationed in Shanghai China said that it's not easy to find Lucky film there too.
Wam, as ray_g said, go to the post about the RFF contest by JOrge ("big cheese") for the rules, post the pics at the RFF contest gallery (click at the bottom of the gallery homepage). Max of three pics.
