Want to Buy WTB: metal 35mm film canisters

[Alex Bishop-Thorpe]

Do you remember, back in the day, when 35mm film came in little metal canisters, instead of the plastic cans we have these days? I do love the little things. In my last few years rummaging through antique/junk shops here, I've only come up with one though. They seem to be much more common in the states. I realise they're available on eBay, but the grossly inflated shipping price to Australia always makes it a ridiculous price, in the end...

You can find an example of what I'm talking about here.

So, what I'm after is just a dozen of those little old metal 35mm film canisters. I'm not fussy about colours. If you have some laying around you'd like to get rid of, I'll happily take them off your hands for a reasonable price, and cover the shipping, via PayPal.

FYI, "letter" package rates from US to Aus are pretty reasonable. But they do not permit insurance.
