Six sealed 100-ft rolls of Kodak Ektachrome 160 Type A reversal film, 16mm double-perf, expiration date August 1993. Purchased in a case of ten by a documentary house in 1991 and stored continuously at 40°F since. The remaining foil packets are unopened and show no swelling or discoloration.
Ektachrome 160 was Kodak's tungsten-balanced reversal stock and was discontinued in the early 2000s; the reintroduced Ektachrome (2018) is a different emulsion (100D, daylight). Expect roughly a stop of shift and some warm base fog—which many shooters prefer. Sold as-is, for those who know what they're doing with it.
