Foma Fomapan Classic 100

This is some Foma black and white film that is lower priced for those on a budget, like me. But it's good film, so I like it.

Another foreign film, (to me), that I like to use. Foma has been in business since 1921.

Foma has been in business since 1921 making black and white film and film materials. This Fomapan Classic 100 is my favorite film made by them.

This is the bell that used to hang in the first Methodist Church ever built in Illinois. It was called Ebenezer Methodist Church and was organized on October 16th, 1838. In the 1980's, the old church was raized and the bell was moved here, to the Methodist Church in town.
