Actually I wanted to post the same question today...
Obviously (or not that obviously) the industry wanted to get rid of that logistical problem of having to have a lot of charges of gelatin in stock to blend the needed quality from. Which of course involved a lot sensitometric measurements too. Having a standard stock of gelatin and knowing how to impure it to what effect, makes production more lean.
But when did that happen and did the industry change over to a standard (or rather making of a standard) gelatin at the same time?
But perhaps someone out there knows the details on this decision of the industry.
