      Could you tell me more about this?  I've never read about "Piper's
Test".  I have two realists, S/Ns A195## and A621##  (both lack double
exposure prevention, neither have Ilex lenses, and I've left out the
last two digits for privacy) The film advance seems to work fine on both
of them, though the A195## occaissionally gives a very slight overlap.
