Paper fiber results and analysis

Pulp type Amount Species (if ID'd)
Softwood bleached sulfite 96% Spruce and/or Hemlock
Hardwood bleached sulfite 2%
Rag 2% Cotton

Paper fiber result: 1930 ‐ 1945
Analysis: Dating based on very low rag component ‐ occasionally appears all the way to ca 1950 and high SBS % common only after 1930. The finding of rag could more precisely date print 3 which is assuredly the same paper, though no rag was found on 3.
