hmm, dear Cin,. . . one caveat to your caveat. . . ink is the least of
the expense savers. After 25 years printing letterpress, I know
coverage must be thin, because overinking blobs up the result. I'd be
far more concerned about color changes due to acid paper than ink

I'm looking for color images of summer cotton frocks, 1917-1918, to get a
feel for colors and prints (if any), particularly for women past 40. I've
