Greetings, Judy,

That would be Gerard Aniere, a Frenchman who has made his home in England
these last many years. He's an expert printmaker in many alt-processes,
including cyanotype, salt, albumin, dye transfer, and even gum. These
prints are actually color carbon prints. Gerard just likes to call them
carbros. He thinks that someone might actually have heard of carbro and
know what it is, imagine! All the materials are made by hand by Gerard.
The enlarged negatives for contact printing are digital film negatives from
a high resolution imagesetter.

How much were the prints selling for? Any red dots?

I am now compelled to add a note about the thrill and delight which has
overwhelmed me since I received the newest issue of Post Factory
Photography. Like another correspondent, I, too, even enjoyed the
beautiful stamps. Thank you once again for another great issue.

Best,

Tod Gangler
