`' P,mv% COPY
B. 9R SIDE: EDGE STATIC AND ROLLER CHATTER WERE NOTED ON'
BOTH EDGES THROUGHOUT THE MISSION. THERE IS A ROW OF MINUS
DENSITY DOTS 1.7" APART AND 1" FROM THE INBOARD EDGE. THEY
ARE VERY DIFFICULT TO DETECT BUT ARE PRESENT FROM THE BEGINNING
TO THE END. FOG ALONG THE OUTBOARD EDGE EXTENDS INTO THE FORMAT
IN FRAMES 566, 1040, 1041, 1258, 2208, 2209, AND 2211. THERE
ARE VERY MINOR WRINKLES IN FRAMES 1523-1574. WATER SPOTS, CINCH
MARKS, ABRASIONS, CREASES AND EMULSION DIGS WERE NOTED IN FRAMES
1258-1295. THIS WAS CAUSED BY A PROCESSOR BREAKDOWN. IT BECAME
NECESSARY TO CUT THE ORIGINAL NEGATIVE AND PULL THESE EXPOSURES
THROUGH THE MACHINE BY HAND. THESE EXPOSURES WERE THEN AIR DRIED.
HEAT SPLICES WERE NOTED BETWEEN FRAMES 691/692, 1012, 1295/1296,

VERTICAL FRAMES. THIS IS PROBABLY CAUSED BY AN INTERNAL REFLECTION
WITHIN THE CAMERA. SOME FRAMES WERE BLURRED BUT THIS IS PROBABLY
DUE TO THE ROLL OF THE VEHICLE. THE LAST TITLED FRAME IS 2251.
