I would if I lived there. It is my favourite paper size (at the moment).

I'd like to see it in Canada. Cut it in half and you have a perfect 2:3 paper for 35mm negatives. No other (larger) format offers that. Well, 20x24 can be cut into 5 x 8x12 but that's a lot of cutting per sheet.

Dear all,

You can order 16" x 12" paper via your reseller, he may have to make up an order to our distributor and our distributor can order it from us :

I know it sounds a long way around but its not a North American item usually, although it has been ordered in the past, lots in stock in our warehouse anyway.

Wynit does list several sizes including 12X16 MG IV I've never dealt with them directly, but might be worth a call. Freestyle lists a couple of Kentmere papers in 12X16, and might be worth calling them too to see if they can expand their listings.

I talked with Wynit just Wednesday..they did not have it listed then but are looking into it.
I have also initiated the process to become a distributor.

I noticed some time ago that 12x16 is rare in the US whilst being wildly popular in the UK (probably the favourite after 8x10 for "serious" work) and that 11x14 is very popular in the US but rare over here.

It's a funny old world...


Ah - I didn't notice that small roll of MGIV : I will have to pop down and relieve Silverprint of a roll... Any chance of getting some made in Warmtone too?


Cheers, Bob.
