Verichrome Pan: Develop?

[Irrev.Rev.]

Recently acquired a Kodak Six-20 (1934??). Anyway, came in case with a roll of V/P. The address label (not filled out) is on the exterior. Would this indicate the film was exposed?? Could be interesting!!
Thanks in advance.

If you are seeing a yellow label which says "exposed" with sections for name, city and address, this would indicate that the film has already been exposed. (This is the same sealing label I have seen on every roll of Verichrome Pan.)

If you want to develop it yourself, I would recommend HC-110 developer for its anti-fog properties. Try Dilution B, for six minutes at 68F.

Thanks! Had to do some 'delicate surgery' to uncover a portion of the label where "Exposed" was printed!! Now the fun begins!
Peace

here's the technical developing data- it's kind of hidden away on the massive dev chart but it is there.
From my experience, the film holds up reasonably well. Also... save that 620 spool.

I developed Verichrome Pan from ca. 1960 in the early 2000s. HC-110 is the stuff. And I'll double down on keeping that 620 spool -- that plus the (presumed) empty one on the supply side of the camera will give you everything you need to respool any 120 film you want to try in that Six-20. I have one, and it's a pretty decent box camera.
