Peter, this topic is dead, if not I could ask you
about the 16x16 enlargement what Xenotar and what
Planar mounted on what camera? 3.5 or 2.8, five or six
elements?, what film? what developer, what time used
to develop film and paper, what paper?, how were the
lens compared?, what enlarger and what lens for the
enlarger? how old were the lenses? etc., etc.

All the best
