Re: Paper Negative Details
Hi Don, Thank you for taking the time to find this link. I have purchased some of this paper (28lb) and find that it does work reasonably well. I think I would rate it second to the Epson paper. This paper appears to be made in Europe or Asia somewhere. I'm afraid I can't check that at the moment though. The original paper that I was referring to in my earlier post to Katharine was manufactured in the U.S. and has the same stock number but is only 26lb. I'm afraid I forgot to mention that. It does not seem to be available any more. http://www.andreazalme.com/Pages/Papers/PaperNeg/Images/HPIM3153_sm.jpg The stock number and weight are visible at the bottom of image. They say it's the same, but when waxed, the grain pattern is different. The original paper I was using (26lb) had a finer grain texture, while the new material (28lb) seems to be somewhat coarser by comparison. I purchased about a dozen packs of the 26lb paper at an auction some years ago and have only used about half of it. I'm not worried about running out soon but if I were to locate an equivelant paper, I'd probably be interested in buying a roll or two.
