Re: [Digital BW] Framing with "almost" no mat

2004-09-18 by Tom Baker

And, what is the issue with putting a "thoroughly dried" ink jet print directly against the glazing, especially if it were sprayed with the likes of Priemer spray?  It doesn't have the same properties as the wet darkroom print that would adhere to the glazing.

I've got a number of 17 x 22 images that I'd like to frame with the 
appearance of having no mat. (They are black & white enlarged contact 
sheets, and I like the feeling of having the black image blend directly 
into the black frame.)

Of course, there must be some kind of spacer, so that the glass is not 
directly in contact with the paper. Perhaps there could be some kind of 
gasket ... or a special extrusion instead of the Nielsen #11 moulding that 
I typically would use.

Any ideas? Any experience?

Thanks much,


Arthur Fink
