A good week for Paper

[Ian Grant]

I had expected 2 8.9cm x 84 metre rolls of Aga Multicontrast RC [a[er but the seller can't find them.

While he looks I managed to get two 16" x12" 100 sheet boxes of Kodak Polycontrast III RC glossy paper, still in the outer cardboard packaging, at a good price... the equivalent Ilford Multigrade would be over £600

Today at a Camera Fair I bought 4 50 sheet boxes of 20"x16" Kodak Polyfibre, 3 Glossy, one Matt, I paid £30 and the seller gave me a box of 10x8 as well. The equivalent Ilford price today just under £1200. Ilford MG Fibre Base Classic 20x16 is £294.49 for a box of 50 sheets. This paper was found stored properly in an Oxford University facility, again it was in the brown cardboard outer packaging.

It would seem that you've been touched by the Paper Faerie ...

I bought about the same in terms of 16"x12" Ilford paper last year, as well 2 unopened boxes of 20"x16" Kodak Elite. I also have two rolls of Ilford paper. a few unopened boxes of Fotospeed RC paper, and then there's my main stock of Ilford Warmtone
