    Description

    Prepared Albumen Paper, lot of 15 Sheets 9x11 ready for sensitizing, shipped in a 11x14 paper box.  In order to make a albumen "print" the paper must first be sensitized with silver nitrate coating and contact printed. The paper being sold here is albumen coated and UN-sensitized.
    This paper was prepared by me following the instructions contained in John Coffer's Wet Plate Photography manual (the bible). The date of manufacture was 2-2004, paper has been boxed and stored in a drawer ever since  Paper is in excellent condition. Quality of coating is grade A, very rare indication of bubbles. The few that are on the paper are minute in size.
    The paper stock used is Stathmore 500 Series Drawing, plate surface 1-ply
    I've included a photo in the listing showing a albumen print I made with this exact paper.  This photo is not included in the sale.
    There are actually 16 sheets of coated paper in total, but I'm pulling one sheet to offer a free test strip to try out before buying.  Send me a message if interested and we can work out how to receive that.  If you chose to do this there's no guarantee the paper won't sell before you're able to perform your test. I'm not holding the paper to wait for results. I'm confident this paper will print excellent if sensitized properly and according to best practices.  If the paper really turns out to be a dud, we can work out some level of refund if I can see proof of bad quality. Thanks
