I don't remember when I got these, but they are so cool. They both are new in their original Heathkit boxes (I didn't know Heath was into darkrrom gear). One is for 8X10 prints, the other is for 11X14. Both need some cleaning at they have some spots and a little bit of surface rust that rubs off with steel wool.

Price is $45.00 + shipping for the both of them. I would trade for some 4X5 film holders (no wooden ones, only plastic please).

Thanks !

Cleaning tip

How cool. I remember those.

Don't need them, but you shouldn't clean them with steel wool. Bits of the steel embed in the stainless, and it rusts. Instead, use a Scotchbrite pad.

That's a great idea - thanks, I'll do that going forward (since I have alot of dirty stainless steel around here).

Excellent advice. And if things are really, really bad, perform an acid wash rubdown with the Scotchbrite. Naval Jelly (phosphoric acid) is readily available at hardware stores and works well.
