Minox 8x11 - special fine grain developers

 In September 1950 Minox introduced a special fine grain developer pack that simplified the process for users of the Minox daylight developing tank. The package consisted of a transparent measuring cup which could store the chemicals, developer, fixing salts and wetting agent in pre-measured glass amulets. These were for a single use and provided long term storage.

In 1952 Minox change the packaging to include 15 sets of developer A and B, fixer and wetting agent sealed in clear plastic bags.
