The Wilhelm tests for Generations + Royal Plush started before William
Turner was introduced by Hahnemuhle.
Royal Plush is German Etching as far as I know. William Turner should also
have a slightly smoother surface than Royal Plush aka German Etching. I
believe that William Turner appeared on the market in the summer of 2000
just after the Drupa.

Hahnemuhle's range and names are clear, the resellers should name their
papers a bit more Hahnemuhle like ;-)
