Re: Luster Rag, Rag Satin and Silver Rag

2005-11-24 by scott_now_coming

Crane's Silver Rag hasn't been relaesed yet.

And, in case you're not aware, the Silver Rag (100% cotton) is 
a "glossy" paper that uses PK (photo black). That's what excites me. 
opefully, it'll look like traditional air dried glossy fibre-based 
paper.

Reports I've read on these groups about the Silver Rag sound really 
promising.

Supposedly, Crane is going to send samples to me, I just don't know 
when: Soon, I hope!
