It is really more of an annoyance than a problem. Removing the film from the slot in the small wooden flap requires extra touching of the film and I worry about grease from my fingers on the image.
I have eleven other 7x17 film holders that do not have this problem so I am fairly sure it is not an operator error: AWB ENT. 1997, AWB ENT. 2001, AWB ENT. undated, three Lotus, two Great Basin, two Sandy King and a no name purchased on eBay.
Thank you for your thoughts.
