My one counter to David's comments (if I'm reading you right) would be that
the vast majority of artists working in 16mm from the '40s through the '60s
did in fact use Kodachrome and Ektachrome, among other stocks. Color

Hi Fred,
I agree with you about restoration titlecards. In some cases, funding agencies

have them as a matter of course, which often helps them to be identified with
the great work they're doing when the print shows
at the archive by
