I use Efle pl 100 film with them. It comes in 3x4 precut...
The rollfilm backs that are mounted to a 3x4 sized plate are quite rare, and command a premium unless you find someone who doesn't know what they're selling. The last alternative is to find yourself a 12-shot bag mag with septums in good shape.
When I say premium, I mean the 6x9cm roll backs with the 4x5 adapter plate (very common) or without adapter plate, to go on the baby speed/crown graphics, tend to sell for $30-75. The ones to fit a 3x4 camera tend to run $150-300, if you can find one not attached to a camera. Not going to pay for a 'dorff, but it's something.
I looked at B&H. They have the Efke film in 2x3 and 4x5 but not 3x4. I like using B&H but don't mind mail ordering from somewhere else - do you know of other places that carry it? Seems much better than cutting down 4x5.

Although I've noticed a general errosion of prices on the bay lately, doesn't account for the fact that I got one for $50 (inclusive of shipping) yesterday afternoon (a "22", would have preferred a "23") completely unopposed. So, assuming it's working okay, that's one option covered.

Slotted holders will only work on the Graflex backs not the later Graphic backs. There were early models of Graflex press cameras that used the slotted backs but most that you see for sale are for the newer backs. The dimensions are different in the two holders as I understand it.
The light trap is different! Which is the most important thing.
Hmmmm... want to trade?
