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.

Bob Belleville has graciously offered up some darkroom equipment for one lucky person/s. Here is the note from Bob.

“I have a complete wet darkroom kit to give away.

It includes a Bessler Dicro67 enlarger with voltage
stabilizer.  There are film tanks, a print washer,
trays, easel, grain magnifier.  Everything for 35mm,
6×7, and 4×5.

I’m looking for a good home for this gear as I need
the space and have converted completely to digital.

I’m in Los Altos near Bloch School.”
