In 1997 I worked in a Custom Photo Lab and when the New Owner started to drive customers away because he was a Drunk, I may have supplemented my lost wages with a roll of film or two. This WAS a roll of Kodak Vericolor Slide that has been stored in my closet since 1997. It should be Bright Cyan, but I think It's Gone Off. But I am Happy I did get something, it was shot at EI of 2 ISO and Pushed 1 stop (in 1997 I had shot it at EI 18 and Push 1) The Scanner didn't like it, the film (process C-41 negatives) is dark and very green. So green that even scanning into a positive it's still green. I literally could not get rid of it. See here for what it looked like in 1997 http://www.lomography.com/homes/alburnkat/albums/1847920-two-monochromatic-views-of-lion/photos/16145872

    Very interesting images and results you achieved with this film! I love the colors and the defects. I checked out the other images of what the film looked like in 1997 and you can see how it deteriorated over the years. Based on my googling I think that the strong bluish cast was due to the fact that the Kodak verichrome slide film was originally meant to make copies of C-41 negatives using tungsten light.
