Yes but what is it?!!!
Is it a high contrast film for microfilming? I could
see how that would work for Tony if it's possible to
get some with sprockets.
Actually you could get some without sprockets and make
some work and then contact print it in a microfilm
printer onto print film with sprockets for projection.
