          Just got back from Oregon a couple days ago and am going
          through my looooooooooong list of new e-mail.  Found the
          reference to rabbit skin glue.  The new issue of AMERICAN
          ARTIST states that rabbit skin glue is not the best thing to
          use for archival purposes because it is especially prone to
          expansion and can lead to cracking of the paint and
          materials applied on top of it.  Acrylic gesso is considered
          preferable.
