Oh yes, I remember those #25 blue dot flash bulbs when I was a kid. My parents had a box type Kodak? camera which took #620 film. It was a wide film and it only took 8 pictures per roll. We used the clear bulbs for B&W film and the Blue Dot (blue bulbs) if we splurged and bought the color film. I still have several old family pictures around taken with that camera. The color pictures have faded quite a bit, but the B&W ones still have a pretty good image. Bulbs were a one time use. Had to use a new bulb for each picture we took. Of course then we had to take the film to the drug store to get them developed. Instant pictures weren't heard of back then.
