Re: Ilford DW fiber base usable/suitable for gum printing

[Paul Viapiano <viapiano@pacbell.net>]

I'm not sure about gum, but carbon printers do this all the time...if you 
don't carbon print you can sell it to someone who does. I'm sure you'll find 
takers here. If not, I know someone who may be interested.
