An Afternoon with the Autocord II

Browse the dollar bin in comfort outside an old record shop on Queen Street West, Toronto.

First test roll of my father-in-law's old Minolta Autocord II. Seems to be functioning well, though it could be a little bit light-leaky because the cork, which would normally seal up the back near the take-up spool, has disintegrated. Will be running a colour roll through tomorrow to check that a little more. Home-processed black and white roll #11 (developer: Rodinal).
