Anyone care to explain the corned beef comments and how they relate to super8 or 8mm? Is it the pitch (.1667 matchs the arc of the tin?) or the discard strip of metal matches the width of the film?

Wow 1964. I would think those tins would be a little bit out of date by now. Interesting link and thanks for the insight to the joke.

The 1964 tins are the most sought after for using the material to manufacture two-bladed shutters for the GS-1200.
