Film Markings

There is abundant information about film manufacturing markings. Another marking sometimes unknown or overlooked, are the processing markings. Kodak, at processing time of Kodachrome film, stamped 8mm film with the year and month of processing. The markings vary in visibility, some are quite small and easily missed, others (like the one below) are easy to spot. As part of capturing all the relevant information about 8mm film, this is a very useful time reference which should not be overlooked.
