+ 25 sheets Dupont Velour Black R-2.

Hell yes. I've been wanting to print on this stuff forever!!!!

I don't have a clue about the surface though. I guess I'll just have to look at it under safelight. I'm a little confused by the letter code. Unblinkingeye's catalog of antique papers lists all Velour Black as having a canvas surface but they don't list any letter designations. I've seen Velour in surfaces, A, T, and R. The article lists Azo R as a linen surface, and all of the other Kodak R's as tweed surfaces. I don't see any letter designations for Dupont papers. I guess I'll ask the APUG folks and report back.

Other than Ilfochrome? Rats. I'm sure I could eventually find some, but I doubt it would be any good. I didn't even know they ever made color film/paper until they bought out Ciba.

Ilford colour film wasn't much good when it was fresh.

Best,

Never used it myself, do recall see some on clearance back around 86ish, also recall someone tell me it was not very good, Also In the 80’s it may have be re-brand Fuji
