  Kodak announced a short time ago that V-Pan was being discontinued. When
current stocks are exhausted it will be gone. 
  Plus-X roll film is similar, although not the same emulsion. It may be
close enough to be satisfactory. 
  Note that Plus-X sheet film has a completely different emulsion with
different tonal rendition. If you have used it you will find the roll
version looks quite different. The curves for the _roll_ version are quite
similar to Verichrome Pan.
