Dear Ralph,

     I find that matte, overmatte, and frame serve as a good barrier to
prevent unwashed chemicals leaching out of the prints that I do and eating
into the plaster walls. I used to put glass over them but I find that the
excess mercury leaching out of the larger pictures tends to condense on the
inside and drip down out of the bottom. It is easier just to hose them down
at the start of the exhibition and then once a day after the school children
have left the gallery. You have to be careful not to do it on the grass or
the city council gets nasty.

     Uncle Dick
