FW: Re: Dassonville Charcoal black paper
I was talking to some people yesterday and they told me that Palladio was
not in production. I remember it was commented on alt that it was out.
There used to be such great papers.All gone now. One of the reasons I went into
alt-process. James Romeo

Mac,
Were these contemporary prints, or work from the "Pictorialist" era at
the turn of the last century? At that time there were literally scores
of platinum papers in a wide range of tints and surfaces, from at least
half a dozen different manufacturers and "Dassonville Charcoal Black"
has the sound of one of these. Of course they've all been gone for
eighty years now. Palladio, when it's in production, is the only
manufactured Pt/Pd paper still in existence as far as I'm aware.
