Re: Van Dyke Problems & Argyrotype paper

Extra points?? How about big bucks? :)
Buxton is Ashton Platinum, available at NY Central 1-800-950-6111. You can
try for the rest at Stephen Kinsella kinsellaartpapers.com or maybe
www.crane.com or maybe Daniel Smith or Jerry's Artarama (the cheapest for
certain papers, like Fabriano) or Dick Blick. Good luck.
