Hello Alan,

Please see my reply in the other thread.

This is part of a 1928 Perutz pricelist.

Here is part of the March 1926 Perutz pricelist.

As you can see Perutz still offfers one cine negative film, which is based on the Grünsiegel (green seal) emulsion.

March 1927 is the first Perutz pricelist in my collection that mentions the Spezial-Fliegerfilm

Note that the name Leica Spezialfilm is not yet used.

I infer, therefore, that the name Leica Spezialfilm was introduced at a later date, possibly later in 1927.

It would help to find other Perutz pricelists from this period!

 

Note also that your cannister must have been for export purposes; 

Leica Spezialfilm was adapted to Leica Specialfilm.

Usually a new film is first introduced on the home market and after a while exported to foreign countries.

So all in all the earliest date for your cannister must be late 1927.
