What happened to this roll? (infosec.pub)

HP5+ in Rollei Supergrain 1:15. Shot on Rolleiflex.

I’ve shot several rolls over the years with a similar process, this time the roll was likely a bit jammed from the get go and stayed in the camera for a bit too long (8 months at least).

The lack of contrast was expected, the underexposed frames are a bit of a surprise, but the main issue I’m having with this is the highlighted area, I’ve never experienced this before.

I’m thinking that the roll didn’t load on the spiral properly and so the developer couldn’t access that part of the film, can anyone confirm or give me more insights?

I can confirm this was due to the film being too tightly packed on the spiral.

Which kind do you use? I find the Paterson ones are the only ones that work for me.
