Roger, do you know if still can be found somewhere daylight-loading film
pack with 12 exposures (9cm x 12 cm = 3 1/4" x 4 1/4") (last made in early
1990's). I have a very old camera that uses this type of film and I would
like give it a try.
Thanks and regards, Moisés

Note that the Graflex quarter-plate camera had four possible backs/films,
including:
. Graflex Film Pack Adapter that took a daylight-loading film pack with 12
exposures (9cm x 12 cm = 3 1/4" x 4 1/4") (last made in early 1990's) .
Graflex Roll Holder holding a special six-exposure roll film (obsolete?)
I expect that the negs came from one of the above.

The key point here is the frame numbers. It was customary to cut roll film
into single frames and pop them in a little glassite bag with the prints, at
this time, especially with negs this size where the standard print would be
a contact print. It's a big roll though - I'd guess Kodak 122 - as used in
the old Autographic folders or something of similar size. Not what a pro
would use though - are they professional shots? AndrewF
