Thanks Andrew. Wonderful story anyway!
I thought it might be an original because I'm not
familiar w/ Kodachrome printing (or ANY film
printing).
Did u mean "Showing the original WAS the ultimate
no-no" in THAT situation, with Ben's film?
Or did u mean showing an original is always or
generally a no-no?
I always show my originals! Insist on it!
