Re: R220 BO prints look great!

Clayton,

Thank for the information. I took a look at your 'Paper Chase' article
after I sent my post and I'm glad to know the papers that are still
available that you like. Hawk Mountain has the following sampler
pack:2 sheets each of: Sparrowhawk, Grayhawk2BW, Merlin (Natural,
Photo, Textured & BW),  Peregrine Velvet 250, Condor (Natural &
BriteWhite), Sharpwing Lustre & Glossy, Broadwing -  total 28 sheets
but I'm only interested in mat papers. Maybe I should ask for a
sampler pack with 28 sheets of the ones you recommend, do you think
they would do that? I have also heard good things about Red River's
50lb. Premium Matte C2S, any experience?

Thanks again,

Scott
