Mike, They don't mention rag, but isn't alpha cellulose 100 percent rag?
Their website is http://www.legionpaper.com They don't give prices on their
site.
This is from their site: I myself have never had any problems with Epson
Archival. Just got a legion paper sampler, and evidently there are 4
different Somerset Velvet Enhanced papers. None have a deep black. Also
printed my sample print on Concorde Rag, and the Black wasn't as good as
Photo Matte OR epson archival matte.
Its about the same as museo.
For Great blacks on a matte paper, Royal Riviera (Torchon) is first, then
Legion Photo Matte, Then Epson Archival, then Epson Watercolor, then Museo
and Somerset and Concorde Rag.

Legion Photo Matte is a photo quality art
paper that delivers rich tones and professional
quality prints. This heavyweight paper is
ideal for creating reprints and enlargements of
your favorite images. The paper is produced
with a top \ufffdcolor receiver\ufffd layer that holds
each drop of ink, yielding greater detail,
sharper contours and beautiful colors. Legion
Photo Matte works equally as well with both
dye-based and pigmented inks on a wide
variety of printers. Additionally, Legion
Photo Matte dries instantly allowing for easy
handling.
100% alpha cellulose (Sulphite Paper), white,
special matte coating for inkjet printing.
Yields outstanding contrast and high color
resolution.
