It's a developing canister for processing 35mm film. In the darkroom, you'd remove the film from the cartridge and roll it onto the metal spiral, close it up, add developing chemicals, and voilá!
...of COURSE!
THANKS SCOTT!!!!!
guess there's not much of a market for these anymore 8-(.
Ack. High School Newspaper Photographer Darkroom Nightmares are coming back to me. The smell! The timing. Will it work? Hated the darkroom. Creepy place. I don't miss that - thank goodness for Digital Photos! It's still a neat little contraption. Surely we can think of a use for it!
Shara ~ were those 'Photography Darkrooms' for developing film?!?!
I see others told you already that it is a developing canister! My guy has lots of those and still loves to develop his own film...yep film!
Linda~ I LOVE that some people still know how to 'actually' develope their own film!!! Does he need ANOTHER 'canister'??
Yes, I developed film for the newspaper. I hate it. i had a whole batch go bad once after a HUGE photoshoot involving a ton of kids. We had to redo the whole thing and I was so embarrassed. Thank goodness I was named Editor and gave up my Photographers badge.
