Looking for some guidance on what paper to use that will match my Mystic American Heirloom album paper. I have looked at Staples and they list a tan 60 lb but I would not call the Mystic pages tan and am not certain about the 60 lb. There are a lot of BOB material that Mystic does not supply pages for. Specifically, cut squares and later revenues. Steiner has the pages so no problem printing them. Thanks in advance for any assistance. Paul
Finding the best paper gets even more challenging if you factor in the correct archival criteria. I only use paper that has been buffered with at least 2-3% calcium carbonate, has a cotton content of 25% or greater, and only contains high alpha cellulose pulp from purified wood fiber (contains no Lignin). Paper that is marketed as 'acid free' means nothing, you have to dig out the actual paper specifications if you want paper that is truly archival. Don
Don: Thanks for the info. Do you have a source that meets your criteria? Please PM me if you are not able to recommend on the post. Thanks for all the great work you do here. displaced hippie - I use only Steiner to print my pages. He has everything I have needed so far. Paul
Thanks Paul, I have been looking at his disk and think that will be the way to go for me since I am not building my collection much past the 50's. Willie
Angore - Thanks for the feedback. Heavier is good. Do you happen to have a stock number for what you are using. I went to their web site and they have many different options. Thanks much. Paul
I have not had good luck buying paper online (but the good news is that I have plenty of paper for other projects). I buy paper and then am disappointed in it, and it is never feasible to try to return it. Your local print shop can order usually order your exact needs. Don
