I believe Verichrome was Kodak's standard "amateur" orthochromatic b/w film (following their earlier standard "NC" - "non-curling" - film) available in nearly every format from the twenties through the late forties or early fifties. It was replaced by Verichrome Pan, yes, an earlier form of the current panchromatic emulsion, in the early fifties. It was always Kodak's easiest-to-find film for nearly any rollfilm camera.(posted 8854 days ago)Personally, I used to shoot it in 828 and 127 (and developed other folks' 126 and 110) and some of those old shots were pretty good. But I haven't used it in 120... at least on a 6x6 negative, good old TX is plenty fine-grain enough for my purposes.
