This one was apparently a closet queen. I picked it up from Tom
Scales in the last throes of his OM ""distributorship. It's hard to
know if it had ever had any film through it. It's still got a little
flag-type sticker on it (which you can see in the photo, though not
well as it is pretty blown out). I had never put a roll of film
through it because the meter gave up. I had John set it up to use a
MR9 +386 I had for it. I've been meaning to get this baby going for
several years.
This digital thing slowed me down a bit.
It's got a roll of Kodachrome 64 in it and ready to go. First shots
will be coming up shortly.
