Needing, craving, dying for shelf s p a c e....
I have a few boxes (4 or 5) of old, *very* old 16 by 20 inch Brovira
singleweight #6 fiber paper. One is opened, the others not. When I bought
it in 1980, it was already out of date, and tho it printed, wasn't as
lively as the 11 by 14. About 5 years ago, a friend tried it and it was
still sort of usable, she said... but she tried another piece last year
and it was pretty bad.
Which is to say, though it's POSSIBLE someone could get a photo out of it,
don't count on it. I understand however that some folks fix out and use
old photo paper, either baryta side or back, and if this would work in
that mode, seems a shame to just let it rot. I'd "sell" it for a few
dollars, but postage is not cheap.... and packing is a pain. Someone who
wants to stop by & pick it up could have a really good deal... But I don't
want to do a lot of packing either... I'd guess minimum two boxes...
Anyway, if this sounds like something you could use... write me OFFLIST...
& I bet me can figure something out.
PS. I also have a roll of something funky I was going to do something
funky with... about 16 inches wide by a fattish roll long -- if that
sounds potential to someone, I'll check the details -- would free up
another hunk of shelf.
