[LargeFormat] D76 Discontinued ??

[Les Newcomer]

I should have added,

""Grand Haist studied the problem and devised a remarkably simple 
solution. Omit the hydroquinone!"  If either the metol or the borax is 
increased by half a gram per liter, a solution indistingquisable in 
working properties from D76 will result, but without the inconsistancy.  
thus  D76H.,. it's available in kit form from Photographer's formualary 
as TD-16."
