Looks like seperation neg film #4133 - A lith film, I think.

Via. Wiki's entry, mind. I've never seen that code.

It's not Ilford and doesn't look like any Kodak film notches that I've seen in the past 4 decades. Also don't think it's Fuji. My guess is it's Agfa or one of the European films. It's been years since using any Agfa but that's my guess. I would guess Agfa 100 or Gevert of some vintage.

Kodak did start using the hemisphere notches on their porta's... fuji did on some as well. I do wish there was some standardization here.

It would be nice if they notched film leaders also, in case you forget what film is in which tank.

Agfapan 100 used two half circles, but farther apart... Ilford Ortho uses a single half circle notch. This one has me stumped.

whatever it is, i shot it at 100 and it seemed to like about 12 mins in xtol 1:1. experiments ongoing.

Like sepiareverb said, it looks a bit like agfapan apx100:

Some place kicking around here I still have some of those multi-ring binders that Kodak used to sell just stuffed with those soft cover 75 cent booklets full of photo info from the 1940's at least into the 1970's. One contains notch codes and processing info for all kinds of sheet film. Today it seems amazing just how many varieties of sheet film you could buy 50 years ago, and not just from Kodak. There was DuPont, Ansco, Ilford, Agfa, Gavaert...and each in a variety of inch and metric sizes.
