Peter,

What then is the history of manufacture of this Kentmere (Luminos) Doc Art,
(SW-ART) paper? I know from the literature that Kentmere manufactured a
special paper for carbro, in four grades, back in the mid-50s, but this
paper was discontinued sometime thereafter. When, and for what reasons,
did Kentmere began manufacturing the non supercoated paper we are discussing
here?
