I did most my printing with a Kreonite (made in Krypton) it was dry to dry 7 minutes a dollar a print. But the paper cost another buck. So it cost me 2 bucks for an 8x10 print. 30 bucks a prints I'd charge for a commercial client they'd already paid me for my time. And 300 for a print for a collector. Though I don't recall every selling a c print in the gallery scene which is ok as I'd have felt bad about it. I was in a group show in which I had a dozen 16x20 c prints of a cold storage building in Portland Oregon. Mark William Rabiner
