Museum Etching

2006-11-15 by john dean

You would think that wouldn't you? The roll version of Museum Etching
has "White Etching 350 gsm 100% rag" on the box, which is the Museum
Etching paper. You'll have to ask the Germans why they don't just call
it Museum Etching on the roll paper boxes like the sheet form. So far
I've used about 10 rolls of this stuff so it isn't a misplaced label.
The sheet form of " White Etching" is 25% rag and 247 gsm, a lesser
quality paper.
