I ... did ... the ... same ... thing!
Only our microfilm/fiche machine was OLD, and all the pages came out basically black. The funniest was the Rolling Stone concert review, "Fleetwood Mac Clicks Despite Nicks" that had the picture of her in the macrame/feather headdress (from TWH & RAL promo posters). The page was so dark, I couldn't tell what the f*ck was on her head -- it looked like a bunch of snakes, or like she had been rolling around in a pile of sticks.
