I ran a test neg by incrementally pulling the dark slide and noting the exposure range (though I can't claim any great accuracy with the Packard shutter). Kyle's estimate of ASA 8-10 sounds about right. I used a single weight Agfa paper (though I can't remember which one), and contact printed it in a glass carrier (to press the papers together tightly). Images were soft, but beautiful in their own way--and way cheap in the scheme of things. Great lot of fun that was.
