I had a 20" Fujimoto in the colour darkroom that was apparently a

I had one of those beasts, too. Glad I got rid of it ages ago when
they still brought high prices. Unfortunately, I didn't sell the
companion enlarger, so I still have one of those Fujimoto automated
color enlargers in storage. Probably only good as a boat anchor
these days.
I kept the paper out in the fridge and the lenses on the shelf
outside the room when they weren't being used. I had a
dehumidifyer going all the time, which hauled awful brown slush out
of the air.
All this reminds me of why I hate the colour darkroom.
All that, and that I no longer have constant sinus infections!
We'll all probably live longer for getting out of our darkrooms.
