I met Dick a few times some years ago. I did not realize that he was still in business. I just drove by his house today without realizing it. Here is a shot of his place. One of the very first photos I took with my K5 when I went digital in 2012.

That was a terrific story. Thanks for posting it. I have used quite a bit of his film over the years, mostly 116, 620 and 127, without knowing how it came about. I spool my own 620 now but still buy a bit of 127 every now and then for my little Kodak Vest Pocket cameras.

Thank you for posting this. I have a couple of Kodak 620 cameras and a pack of Portra 620; it's nice to know whom I have to thank for being able to use those lovely old cameras.
