 You bought a filmless classic.  The 127 film was discontinued by Kodak in

 recall.  It fell out of favor due to the 126 film cartridge. 

Actually, 127 film is available from a company in New York called Film for 
Classics.  They have a webpage at http://www.photomall.com/ffc1.htm, and 
although the film's not exactly cheap, at least it is available in bw and 
ektachrome.

 Darn...I knew I should have paid more attention in German class...

Isn't Schmitt a German surname, Andy?  can't speak German?  shame, shame
:-)

 The MACOPHOTO films look real interesting. Hopefully they will be able to
 point me to an English translation of the info .pdf  the pricing isn't
 too bad.

There is this within-same-continent alternative. also:

They even have 126 film for a quick pinhole camera set-up.

Guy ans all interested,

   Are you refering to Photo Impex at http://www.fotoimpex.de/  ?
   If you are, I should tell the list that I have had excellent
   dealings with them from Montreal, Canada.
   Quick, courteous service and excellent packing.
   I highly recommend them.

Yep, it's them.
By the way, the are already listed here:

Tat reference is only obsolete in as much as it does not show
Fotoimpex's informative and easy-to-use website.

US-shoppers may benefit by the favorible exchange rate. Dollars are
worth more these days in the Euro zone.

Murray,

To my knowledge EFKE - an eastern European manufacturer still
makes 127 films. If you can't find a supplyer near you, there is
one in Berlin, Germany who sells worldwide.

I think Freestyle sells this film. Check them on the net. It use to be 
freestylesalesco.com
