I'm a new subscriber and and I'm soon to be graduating from Brooks Institute.
I've been assisting one of our instructors who is an acomplished platinum,
palladium and kallitype printer. I've spent the last few months duping up
original silver negs to 8x10 with contrast ranges for these alternative
processes with the hope of trying my hand at carbon.

I spent a rather frustating day today trying to make xome pigmented tissue
and already asked Mr. Nadeau if knew of anyone importing manufactured
tissue. He said that Hanfstaengl ceased to exist ca. 1992. so I was wondering
if anyone out there makes their own for resale.

I will continue to force myself to learn but in the meantime if you can point
me in the right direction (or offer any helpful pointers) it would be great.

Many thanks in advance,
Sincerely
