It could be bad light seals on the back, exposing the film only when the
camera is at certain angles to the sun. That is a fairly common problem
with older cameras, and a cheap one to repair.

In any case, I've now also done a quick scan of the entire negative
strip. Not a very good one as I used a plain A4 document scanner,
but I think it illustrates the problem well enough. You'll find it
here:

Camera back was opened briefly.
I haven't noticed it being opened, obviously, or I wouldn't have
asked. But maybe something may somehow have happened while I was
carrying the camera in a bag full of other stuff?
There is also a somewhat narrower vertical band across frame no 15, by
the way - this is what I was referring to in the original post (first
frame in the strip shown is no 17), and also a couple of small, green
marks outside the actual image area at around no. 13. The rest of the
film is OK.
