Chris, I take as a given that you wrung every gum print at George Eastman
house out of the back storage rooms when you were there... but just in
case mention that on my last visit (a year or so ago) I was VERY impressed
with some very large gum prints by Heinrich Kuehn that I'd never seen
before. (I forget the name of the show, but it had a lot of publicity so
you probably saw it... Still -- tho I like to think I'm immune to size,
I think I'd never seen such large gums ... & they were swell.)
True, large prints & large collections are not necessarily
interchangeable, but possibly better than nothing.
