hi eric
i bookmarked this thread because it reminded me of what it was like back then
i think it was forte... but ...
http://www.largeformatphotography.i...hp?11217-Forte-Efke-J-C-Freestyle-100-200-400
but there was a massive re-branding situation back then, as you remember ... forte also made bregger
its hard to believe tim a ( RIP ) isn't around anymore .. and john ( J&C ) just was disappeared ...

Thanks for the link John. Reminds me of the old Abbot and Costello baseball routine. Anyone remember John from J&C's last name? Last I heard he was doing marketing for some company in Vegas.

yeah it was complicated ! nothing like today
i think his last name began with an M ... and was greek and think it ended in " -us" or " "- is"
wow, vegas .. good for him. it was a real shame what happened back then ... seems so long ago ..

Besides the J&C debacle their shipping costs to Canada are just ridiculous.
