Sorry for the lateness of this reply, but I;ve been away for a few days.
It is very likely that the print you saw was one I printed when I was
working for that particular photographer. It was printed on a Bienfang
Layout paper that comes in pads. Once the print size gets beyond 8X10 it
becomes particularly difficult to deal with. I believe the paper is
called Bienfang Designer series 300.

More info later if you need it.
