Steven,

I think I may have some (I mean, my darkroom does, which really isn't mine, but that has a ton of old paper that I've been sampling), although it's Ilfobrom, not Ilfomar. I could make you make you print and send it to you so you can feel for yourself if you like (just PM me your details).

Funny I was thinking about this paper earlier. It was my favourite FB paper by Ilford. Printed my A level exam on it in the early 90s. Long gone are the choices of paper finishes.

Hard to describe, but had a rich looking sheen.
