davis_squarenot really Davis Sq and maybe old news but maybe save someone (like me...) a few trips.
I went looking for film cleaner today. Calumet didn't have any (and their "chemical" photo stock is basically what would fit on a normal sized kitchen table. i.e. slim). I tried to go by SBI sales... and they are not in that horrid complex any longer. I went by Ferrante Dega and YIKES they are gone!! They were a fixture in Harvard Sq (and the smell of fixer as you walked by was one of my OPS waypoints (Olfactory Positioning System...;-) Tried the Coop too - no luck. Later someone told me that SBI had merged with Hunt's Photo (?) and is in the building where the x-Tower records is/was. Haven't checked that out yet. Someone also told me about "Zef's Photo" someplace out on the Belmont line - might try that tomorrow.
I guess the days of film are seriously passing/passed- but I still have a fondness for chemically derived images.
