- Abstract
- With the present scarcity of raw print stock, there is need for procedures which will substantially increase the useful life of the film at hand. Prints are rendered unserviceable by damage to the perforations, by mutilation of the edges in shipment, and by abrasion of the surfaces. The means by which each of these types of film damage can be minimized (and in some cases almost entirely eliminated) will be described. The adoption of only one of these film conservation measures should double the useful life of a print. Universal adoption of all these measures could make possible several hundred bookings of a print.
