Peter,

It was Fuji 200 as rebranded by Wal-Mart. I like the Fuji better than the 
Kodak Gold that is usually available.

Thanks for looking, and for the kind words.  I suspect that the striping 
results from the decrease in business in film scanning, since everyone is 
going to digital.  The machines just don't get the attention that they once 
did.
