Tom Millea has used the Polaroid 35mm black and white film for his
platinum printing. He enlarges the Polaroid slide onto large sheets of
Kodak Professional Copy Film. I'm not sure if this is a process he's
still pursuing, but the results were strong in the work I've seen. Tom
apparently has a web page that one could find via a search.
