I certainly agree with Frank about the 1-ply; for pen- and -ink, it has always been my first choice. Not only can you trace with it easily, but when using very fine pen tips (6x0 technical or fine crowquills) I found that it takes a better line-- the surface is definately different (use Pounce or something similar to clean surface before inking). And over the years I've had to do a lot of erasing, and have not yet ruined a drawing. The electric erasor polishes the paper as it erases and leaves you with a perfectly good drawing surface underneath. I would be very sorry to see this product disappear.
