Wondering if anyone can tell me if this unit would work for exposing Alternative prints. Looking at the photos my concern is the spacing of the bulbs.

Thanks,
Jim

Mine is similar, but with a smaller exposure area of 16x20, and 6 bulbs. I tried making 16x20 carbon prints and kallitypes with it, but there was slight falloff in the corners. My exposures are 13 to 15 minutes.

Thanks for the info Andrew. I just so happens I found an AmerGraph V28-1200 on eBay after I posted my question that I purchased.

Good find! And you probably rescued it from going in the tip.
