http://www.rosco.com/spectrum/index.php/2010/11/the-first-100-years-from-gelatine-to-roscolux/ said:"One day in 1919, Rosenstein had checked out a run of gel and decided that it was off-color and unsaleable. Louis Hartmann, David Belasco’s electrician, came in and looked at a sheet of this unsaleable, salmon-amber. He asked if he could take a couple of sheets and returned the next day to get some more. No one knew what he was talking about. "It was here yesterday," he said, "that bastard amber." Well, it had all been remelted and now Hartmann was rhapsodizing about how wonderful it was on skin tones. Fortunately, he still had a sheet and Mac was able to recreate the accident - Bastard Amber. Over the years, Bastard Amber has become one of Rosco’s largest selling colors... Serendipity."
