In the late 60’s I dabbled with a number of different makes of slide film before settling on Kodachrome. This one was a Boots own brand that you had to mount into your own frames, hence no actual processing date. The date given for the year taken is, by my recollection, the latest possible processing date. However, it could have been at any time during 1965 to 1969.
