Default FA: Two LARGE boxes of Photographer's Formulary #130 paper developer

Two unused and unopened large-size boxes of Photographer's Formulary
#130 Paper Developer, their version of Ansco #130. Ansel Adams used a
variation of this classic Ansco formula to print his Portfolio No. One
in 1948.

Here's how Photographer's Formulary describes it: "The developer has
excellent tray and shelf life, high capacity, and is very suitable for
batch processing. The prints obtained using Developer 130 are
surpassed only by those obtained using the amidol developers such as
Weston's Amidol and Amidol Paper Developer. Developer 130, however, is
far more pleasant to work with than are the amidol developers. All
things considered, Developer 130 is one of the best paper developers
ever formulated. This is a glycin-metol-hydroquinone developer that
gives a beautiful scale, rich shadows, deep blacks and delicate
highlights. "

Each package makes 8 liters of stock solution which is diluted 1:1 for
use. Photographer's Formulary currently sells these for $36.50 each
plus shipping.
