Digital BW, The Print

The "more" textured side is the printing side...generally it might 
curl a little...the curled side is top...

You can wet your fingers and pinch a corner...the side that is 
stickiest is the coated side...or if you're wild and crazy like some 
here, you just lick the dude and you will know.

cheers,

Tom O'Connell
