The film you want would probably would be an internegative or slide duplicating
film.  But if your originals are lacking in contrast, "regular" film might 
actually help it.

Anyone "duplicate" 50's non-Kodachrome slides (i.e. faded) onto high contrast
film to try improve them?  Usually they're essentially monochrome (the badly 
faded ones). Has color filtration been able to intensify the hints of the 
other colors that often is still visibly there?  Do the faded colors fade
"linearly" between the areas that originally were light and denser areas?

Been meaning to try this, but it's WAY down the list, but if it's useless
(don't mean it has to fully recover splendor of the original form, but just
be better than the faded slide "as is" -- enough to be worth the trouble 
and expense)  then I can strike it off the list completely.  :-)
