Subject: [Baren 16196] Thanksgiving 

To Bareners All...........Wishing everyone a memorable Thanksgiving.....

And a thank you from me to all who took the time to send a wealth of
information about digital cameras. I'm on my way to decision.

Also, thanks for the press info. My ancient press is a 12" Weber which I
think is no longer made. (Its work time was back in the 30's or 40's.)But
with research I have come up with what I feel is a reasonable
price.......$250. to $300. Onward with woodblock hand printing.........ElizA

Large Print Exchange

"perhaps others cannot remember the size either ....Barbara M."

The print format is in-between 16 x 20" - 22 x 32".

The mailing format is 22x32" (This format has to be used for all mailings
even if the prints to be sent are smaller than this size, as the package
material
will be used for return-mailing and has to be suitable to handle prints up
to 22 x 32")

This information is also added to the up-date on the information-board
http://www.rst-art.com/lpe.htm


best regards

Rudolf

From big to little or is it little to big
reading this as a sew up my horses      have no problem with the length of 
the big print but 16" is as wide as my press will print (runs on steel rails 
so I cant change that).  I have taken off the grippers so I can print longer 
than the dead line.  The blocks are cut I just have to go get the paper and 
have ink meet the block.  Very good to have a dead line for when the print is 
due though.   I have been sick the last week or two glad i tend to get things 
done early.

I have a question about the firemen prints. I am having a show of =
exchanges #8 & #10 (I think that is right, which ever two I was in =
already) at our galleries in January. I think that that allows for some =
good publicity of this other print project and our local paper and the =
Boise paper may be more willing to cover the show if this other idea is =
brought up at the same time. Are we going to have the firemen prints =
posted anywhere on the web? If I can get that website out it may allow us =
to sell some of the portfolios in this area.

Hi, I think the more exhibits/publicity the better....regarding showing the
prints online, since they are not an exchange per say, they probably don't
belong under the same umbrella/links with the other exchanges but we can
certainly put together a "benefit" page and possibly link it to the main
Baren introduction page....

John, If you don't have access to a scanner, I do. Since we are only a mile
away or so, we
can figure something out later when all the prints are in...my own print is
in the cutting stage but will be ready mid december...

best to all...Julio
