<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 4796886, member: 19463"]Fifty years ago you could buy Sodium thiosulphate in almost any drugstore and every camera shop since it was photo 'fixer'. Then someone invented 'Rapid fixer' which was better for pictures but not useful for coins and it became harder to find the old stuff. Later still digital photography erased terms like fixer, film and darkroom from the vocabulary. Progress has its price.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
