Thanks, Don. This is what most people do when using paper
negatives in pinhole cameras; it's common practice of course to
contact print to silver without peeling or oiling. However, my remarks
related to alternative process; getting more light through the negative
for printing on the slower alternative emulsions is where the peeling
and oiling come in.
