It&#039;s hard to say the attempt to return to Brenner&#039;s original design was successful though, perhaps mostly due to the low relief of modern coins.

It&#039;s not just the shops though. Digital is undeniably wonderful, but simply lacks the (for the lack of a better term) character film has, and all but the nicest and/or most costly equipment today lacks the quality and feel of even the average old. &quot;Progress&quot;, at least in this respect, is certainly open to debate.</p><p><br /></p><p>I too have a number of film rolls/canisters dating back decades, so perhaps I&#039;ll use your example as motivation to finally send them in to see what&#039;s there.
