Say, Katherine, speaking of framing gum prints and gallery shows, I have an
off-the-wall (no pun intended - on second thought, that's pretty good!)
question for you: I love gum prints. That goes without saying. Love
everything about them, including the surface of the paper and how the gum
glimmers in areas where its thicker. Recently, I took the glass out of a
couple of prints and hung them up, framed, matted, and no glass. I kind of
like them that way. Is this a totally ridiculous concept for showing and
selling prints in a gallery setting?

Thanks!

With Dick's permission I'll post some images on the B&S site to
illustrate what I mean about the range of expression and tonal scale
possible with gum, when I can find some time to do that. Right now I'm
getting things ready for the gallery to meet publicity deadlines for my
upcoming show, and then there's finishing the printing and framing and
all that, so it won't be right away.
