I recently acquired yet another Brownie Target Six-20 (see other gallery for explanation) so I could do this: convert it to give 16 exposures instead of 8. I think I was pretty successful, and the text on the images will explain.
To see the what the Brownie Target Six-20 looked like before conversion, see the aforementioned other gallery.
25 May 2009: Having received a roll of long-expired (1960, which makes it more than 50 years old!) Verichrome Pan 620 film in a trade with a fellow photographer, I was hot to use it and see what I got. My son Keane and I went out on Memorial Day to look at the people and play at a beachside playground, and I shot the roll in this camera. The pictures are seen here in the same sequence in which they were shot. (I achieved the close-ups by using a vintage Kodak No. 6 Close-Up Attachment.)
I dunno about you, but I'm darned impressed by what I got from this ancient roll. (Thanks, Todd!)
