Question for you all.

I found a lot of 5x7 film holders in Pietrzak’s darkroom loaded with this film. I’m trying to identify it.

Ilford shows a code like this on FP5+ film in sizes ABOVE 10x12” and a different code for that film below that size.

I have many boxes of 5x7 FP5+ myself (some very old and some brand new) that have different codes.

So I’m thinking this must be something else. Any ideas?

I appreciate the help.

Any ideas?

It may be an older version of HP5, if this chart (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notch_code#Code_notches_and_ISO_speeds_for_Ilford_sheet_films) is correct.
