Digital BW, The Print

When my daughter was a toddler (20 years ago), I photographed her using Tri-X. The image was printed on Ilford Galleria. 
The print was mounted using a method called "Optimount" at a professional lab in Chicago called "Gamma".
The print was mounted on tempered masonite, then covered with an optically clear adhesive and covered with 1/4" clear acrylic.
The "Optimount" process is airtight. The print was large (18" x 54") made up of 3 images. I realize 20 years is not that long 
in the whole scheme of things, but that print looks as good today as the day it was picked it up.

Gamma is still in business:
