Steve - It was a lovely paper. I did quite a bit of printing on it and am
looking at a couple of 16x20's. Used to buy it from a tiny shop above a
chemist in Muswell Hill. I think it was called Goldfinger?.....One day they
were then and then suddenly gone...Now, if only I could produce such prints
digitally...
