Well, my bronzed print isn't under or behind anything: it's stuck on the
wall with two little pieces of tape. And no, the
I remember him saying that the problem seems to be
greater with recent prints. When prints are set aside
for a couple of months before framing, the problem is
somehow reduced. Maybe some sort of acid environment
is created between the glass and the print?

BTW, how did Ctein test?
Did he mention his wash method, or what fixer he was using? If he was
running these prints through a processor, really, I still have to
suspect the wash or the fix; I've yet to see a machine that gives you a
proper wash. After all, processors are designed as a speedy

I don'tthink so.
I never did see Cteins follow up
article about it, so I don't know what conclusions he came to in
the long run. He was very concerned about the bronzing problem

I'm not concerned anymore, I'm sticking with fiber.
I have a lot of 25 year old RC prints, the majority on Kodak paper, that
are as good as the day I made them. While most of them have been stored
in boxes, some are framed behind glass.

(not sure if I ever read the second part) but he does
state that using either selenium toner or AGFA Sistan
seems to provide considerable protection. He also
states that AGFA paper is more susceptible to the
problem than Kodak.

That makes me feel better, as I've given out a bunch of RC prints in the
last year or 2...luckily they were all toned.
