Re: labeling on negative film base



hello

thanks very much for all your suggestions. I'll probably try your very practical suggestion of the red sharpie Sandy, I've got one kicking around here somewhere? If that doesn't cut it, perhaps I'll splurge on a  Rapidograph with India Ink. It seems the ultimate solution would be a Rapidograph with red india ink?
