The information is contained in: The reproduction of colour By Robert William Gainer Hunt. A Google reference to the book is: *Reproduction of Colour*: http://books.google.com/books?id=nFtW4LG24fEC&pg=PA174&dq=%22preferred+colour+reproduction%22+OR+%22preferred+color+reproduction%22&hl=en&ei=XkM_TfveHYT68AbJxoT7Cg&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CCoQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=%22preferred%20colour%20reproduction%22%20OR%20%22preferred%20color%20reproduction%22&f=false Apparently my old professor was telling the truth since his previous job was at the Univ. of Rochester. In contrast to Kodak's "pleasing" color, Fuji touted the true color rendition in its introduction of Fujicolor in the US market in the '60s. I always thought the Fuji slides looked weak next to their Kodak competitor. Larry Z
