[Leica] Kodachrome

[Jim Nichols]

Good to hear from you, Phil.  We really had a deal for a while. The 
supplier of the movie Kodachrome somehow supplied us with Kodak mailers, 
and Kodak processed the film and returned it as mounted slides.  That 
didn't last too long.  Kodak realized they were being taken advantage of 
and ceased to handle the respooled bulk film processing.
