Jessops Pan 100 36exp - Expired 07/2003

Capture a piece of British photographic heritage with a beautifully matured black and white classic. This is Jessops Pan 100 in a full-length 36 exposure roll, expired in July 2003.

During the analog golden era of the 1990s and early 2000s, Jessops' house-brand films were staples of high streets across the UK. Far from being a cheap imitation, their "Pan" lineup was famously sourced from master European emulsion builders—often packing the legendary, ultra-reliable Agfa APX 100 formula inside the canister. Having spent over two decades aging in the dark, this slow-speed monochrome treasure offers an incredibly crisp, atmospheric, and rewarding vintage experience.

The Highlights

• Premium European Roots: Because this stock traditionally holds classic Agfa APX technology under the hood, you are shooting a highly capable, professional-grade heritage formula known for exceptional edge sharpness and beautifully structured tonal gradations.

• Flawless Black & White Stability: Colour films rely on organic dyes that warp, fade, and shift colour over the decades, but black and white films rely on stable metallic silver. Having matured for over 23 years, this stock suffers from virtually none of the heavy, muddy degradation common in old colour film, yielding remarkably clean, sharp negatives.

• Classic Silver-Rich Contrast: Expect a gorgeous, timeless monochrome profile. This batch delivers deep, ink-black shadows, punchy mid-tones, and soft, glowing highlights that perfectly replicate the look of a turn-of-the-century documentary photo archive.

• Full-Length 36 Exposures: With a full 36-frame count, you have plenty of canvas to play with your exposure settings, experiment with different filters, and completely immerse yourself in a creative monochrome project.
