My Kodak Retina IIIc and it's Box

This is only the second 35mm cassette jam I've experienced in fifty-some years and I don't know how many thousands of rolls of film I've shot. The first was easy to see why: the spool had an obvious defect. That was more than thirty years ago! This one is more subtle, but that explanation is all I can come up with since I had to destroy the cassette so I could get the spool out to examine it.

The fresh load I replaced it with I completed on this mornings ride and the camera worked flawlessly throughout. I'll process it in a little bit. 👍

Godfrey, do you care to share with us what film it was that had the bad cassette?

I have a 3c and absolutely love it, need to put more film through it.

Sure, but I doubt it's significant. Fuji ACROS 100... I've probably run 20 more rolls of the same film, from the same film pack, through the camera with no problems.

It was most likely just one badly assembled roll of film.
