I'm looking for a few boxes of carbons for a B+H 609 16mm projector. The correct ones are 6.5 mm x 8 or 9 inch pos and 5.5mm x 6 inch neg, and were made by both National and Morgan. I doubt if I'm going to find any of those, but slightly larger ones can be used. 'Sixes and sevens' will work, but a 12 inch positive has to be shortened by about half an inch to stop the douser hitting the end of it. Anybody have any that might be suitable?

I've disposed of what remained of my film collection, and the projector is going to a museum where it will be used from time to time. I'd like to send enough carbons with it to keep them going for a few years and I've only got a couple of boxes left.
