>>> Thanks for the quick response. Also thanks for the info. about NOT adhesiving a print to a mat, I kind of thought it shouldn't be done that way. I'm going to take the print(s) back to the framer and show him the outcome. Maybe he can straighten this out, these prints were special and I hate to give/sell anyone "crappy" work. I guess I should expand more. From your description (more information is definitely needed; look inside the mattes!) it sounds as though your prints have been dry mounted or perhaps a spray adhesive has been used. In either case, your framer has destroyed your prints and there is no saving them. (Dry mounting was the "recommended" method decades ago, but is now definitely a no-no. Spray adhesives are unspeakable!) David Kachel ___________________ Artist-Photographer Fine B&W Photographs www.davidkachel.com david@... Gallery: www.reddoorfinephotographs.com director@...
