Terry King postulates:

Richard Sullivan said in relation to mercuric chloride toning of Van Dyke
prints:

" Now why did I try this on a Van Dyke? Well it was
back in the 60's, and was probably a chemically induced inspiration."

Is this combination archival personswise ?

Richard meekly replies:

Don't we all have a shelflife?

or:

I'm still alive dammit. It beats hangliding (or motorcycly barrel jumping,
rock climbing, arguing with Judy Seigal (sorry Judy))

or as the wag said:

"If you can remember the 60's, you probably weren't there."
