Many thanks to those of you who responded to my query for info on
slides and prints from the same film.  The following is a summary of
responses:

Special film:
   Kodak 5247 -- movie film (surplus usually). Relatively cheap.  Fair
                 quality.  Funny ASA numbers.  Few labs process it.
                 Color balance can be tricky.
                 Also available is processing as filmstrip (cheaper).
                 Prints are cheaper from the negatives than from slides.
                 Film is thicker; may have caused premature wear in one
                 camera.
                 Primary advantage -- cheap.
                 Primary disadvantage -- mail-order processing.

   Polaroid Type 55 (maybe wrong number) -- provides both positive and
                 negative (but not slide and negative).

Special processing:
   Vericolor film  -- some labs regularly produce slides and prints from
                 Vericolor as a package deal.  Again, color balance often
                 poor. 
   One person recommended Seattle Film Works, Seattle, WA which charges
                 $17.15 for negatives, prints, slides and new film (36 exp).
  			Seattle FilmWorks
			P.O. Box C-34056
			Seattle, WA 98124

Again, thanks for all the responses!
