Digital BW, The Print

Wood frame, I could not take a photo of it, the "cracks" are very small, I had to loupe them to see them with my 52 year old eyes even wearing glasses.

I did no d roller on it or flatten it with anything. When I printed it I laid it out on a table for a few days and it was dead flat, then it got rolled up in tube to transport to framer, he framed it within a few days.

Now of course I have to rely on what the framer might have done (knowingly or unknowingly) and that is how our client accepted the final piece. But being the client only noticed the "cracks" recently I would say it is something that developed over time. He is VERY picky (anyone ever wonder if our clients might monitor these e-groups? Yikes!)
