Hi jewelia, welcome back, we missed you.... The (beautiful) Jed Devine
print I saw (gift to a friend) was on Bienfang. This was some years ago &
there had been some trouble with Bienfang, the story went, but as near as
I can remember about a paper I will NEVER use (saving the remaining gray
cells), it was later fixed. Is that Bienfang type #360" ?
