David McCanna wrote in offering some free photo paper. His note is as follows:
————————————-
My wife was interested in developing her own black and white pictures for a while and we have a few boxes of photo paper that are no longer needed and was wondering if someone in your club had an interest or use before we toss.
We have 3 boxes:
Arista black and white glossy 8 x 12 about 20 sheets or so
Arista black and white semi matte 8 x 10 about 100 sheet box
Varycon 8 x 10 glossy about 100 sheet box.
Paper is in black plastic covering in the boxes.
Thank you.
