Digital BW, The Print

That was thought provoking Tyler. As with a lot of your and Paul's 
posts, I printed it out for my records.

 I used Hollinger's borads for about 10 years when they were 
cheaper in bulk than other suppliers and after 25 years so far so 
good. I actually dry mounted silver print collages onto them. But 
this product discussed here is new.

What kind of dry mounting material is he using here? I guess 
that is worth studying carefully. A.Adams drymounted all his 
porfolios as did Fred Sommer, Uelsman, Gowin( in the old days) 
etc. We were always taught that it was the wrong thing do do and 
hinging was best stragegy because if the board was damaged 
or discolored the print could be removed. This seems to be a 
reversal of that approach. That comment about the storage 
boxes needing to be evaluated was totally on target. 

Buffered board can be damaging to the dyes of color coupler 
photographs, but what about pigment inkjet prints? Buffering 
should help them, right? Is there any reason to avoid buffering 
when it comes to storage of inkjet media?

I'm not supposed to be thinking about permanence again. I was 
supposed to finish up obsessing about that last week.
