Must say I have never seen that particular backing paper. But made in USA is a good sign. Probably a Kodak product of some sort.
No, it's Ansco.

Nope. That there is a roll of non-Kodak 620 film.
If it were Kodak it would be purple and yellow,
not black and silver.

I purchased a Kodak Tourist II with the goal of repurposing the lens for use on a Nikon mount. Much to my surprize there is an exposed roll of film in it. I'm curious if anyone out there would like to develop the roll. I have no idea what, if anyting is on it. It is obviously decades old. I would just like to see the pictures if there are any. If there are any takers, just PM me your address, and I will drop it in the mail.
Find someone who does b&w film developing at home. 620 film is the same width as 120, so common 120-width reels will work.

I googled "developing old film" which led me to the "rescued film project" which is very interesting. I learned that there are people who seek out old rolls of undeveloped film, often paying a premium price, so they can discover what images have been hidden until being developed.

620 and 120 are the same size film on different spools. Any lab that does 120 can do 620, if they have a knowledgeable clerk.

Yep, Ansco also made 620 film to compete with Kodak.
(The Kodak Verichrome film I used was RED and yellow)

If you had a 120/620 processing reel& tank,you could load it on that and check the paper leader at the beginning for more info.
