Jerry,

Congratulations on your exhibition. I have a question about your mounting on
aluminum plates. I have seen art and large photos (Avedon) mounted this way.
What advantages - practical or aesthetic do you find? I have also seen
examples of mount board and paper turning yellow when kept in non-anodized
aluminum holders - that was a surprise to me.
