Interesting! I just finally finished a fill of Sailor Kobe Taisanji Yellow, which is in the same color territory under conditions that optimize saturation. That is to say, it is much paler than these images when used in a narrow nib and on the usual fountain-pen friendly papers, but in wider nibs and on more absorbent papers it is a striking gold.

 

What pen and paper did you use for this comparison?

Paper is Rhodia dotpad n.18, 80gsm, pen is a goulet B nib used as a dip pen on a dip pen holder for the first half of the page, and a broad oblique Leonardt 2.5mm for the rest.

Thank you for your care in preparing this ink comparison.

It's helpful for my understanding of these inks.

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
