The Speed is from 1940
the crown is from 1946.
I know Kodak recently stopped producing film and I've heared conflicting stories about Ilford.

They buy master rolls of Ilford and cut it themselves. I asked them about cutting film for 6x8 and other than getting the dimentions just right (4x5 film is about 1/16" undersize) they had no problem and it would be cheaper than 8x10.
Pack film is long gone so that's a paperweight (although it's a hidden source for darkslides)
manuals and other things can be found as copies on several sights, look through the helpboard or wait until somebody posts the URL. Midwest camera Exchange
