Know what?
Had to dig deep into one of my desk compartments, and found a Watson (R)
Model 100 - 35 mm Bulk Film Loader. Designed and manufactured by Pfefer
Products, North Hollywood, Calif. U.S.A., U.S. Patent No 3,768,748.

Unfortunately, the korean cans on which film was loaded into and sold
together with the Watson, scratched the film and it was somehow difficult to
find good ones here, that's why I gave up using it.

Should I have the time to dig deeper, I'd find the bill too.
