In 1993, Chris Cran got a great deal on 100 enamel-coated steel plates.
He bought them at a going-out-of-business sale at a strip-mall camera store in Calgary’s Beltline. The plates, which were used for photo-finishing, usually went for about $40 apiece. Cran bought his for $2 each, piled them at the back of his studio and promptly forgot about them.
