Hi Brian,

The current market for photographic paper is becoming more and more limited, 
Oriental Seagull no longer sells outside Japan, Adox does not make fibre 
paper either, there is only Ilford, Foma, Bergger, and Kentmere, in the USA 
I see that there is Arista which is not found in Europe. I hope I will 
continue to find paper.

Cheers
Lluis
