I was wondering what is the most common method if displaying gallery work
for
35mm full frame prints? I have seen some mat cuts where the window is just
outside
the 35mm print border? is this a common way of displaying 35mm full frame
prints when
you're doing mats? thanks.

k.

The same as for displaying any other print.

If you want the uncommon black stripe and ratty negative holder
method look I can not help you.

Maybe it is time we lowered our standards in order to make a few bucks as
social security goes bankrupt. Let's market some matts with
pre-printed raggy edges and sprocket holes.

All Pyramid schemes eventually go belly up. Why should social security
be any different?

I thought Social Security was a 'Ponzi' scam:

But I guess a Ponzi scam is a variation on a pyramid scheme which is
a variation on a chain letter which is a variation on Herbalife. Or
is it the other way 'round?

The only difference between SS and a pyramid scam, is that with a pyramid
scam, all you have to do is hit, "delete", and go on to the next
e-mail.....With SS, the government made a law that says you have to join
whether you're smart enough to see through the scam or not........

Yes: Pick up a book of photographs, open a magazine, go to a
gallery, a museum and count: with black border Vs without
black border.

Just a thought exercise: which do you think will be
the more common?

Black borders were first done to be UN-common: not like the
crowd.

Actually I think Ilford invented the black border, Cibachrome prints
done with a blank border means a black border rather then a white one.
Some folks thought it was cool, and could be done with Negative prints,
simply by putting something over the exposed print raising the easel
border, and then giving it double tim exposure under the enlarger with
no negative in the carrier. Burns the border in wonderful black.

I always thought with the rich colour saturation of Cibachrome prints,
the black border looked better, with the lower colour saturation of
negative prints the white border looked better, but that's just my opinion.

I think it predates Cibachrome by quite a long way. I've got a book
"Miniature Photography" by Richard Simon published in 1937 in which
the author explains how he prints dark borders on his prints.
After making an enlargement, take a piece of card the size of the
print minus the border and place it on the enlarging paper and expose
the edges with a pocket flashlight or the enlarger with negative
removed.

It can look cool if well done, but it certainly predates Cibabchrome
by many years.

Peter.
