Wheelwright included a chapter on the permanence of paper.
Wheelwright included a chapter on the permanence of paper, and reasons for its lack thereof. One detail mentioned in the first paragraph was that Wheelwright claimed that The Times of London, and The New York Times and the Sunday Morning Herald newspapers "printed a small number of copies of each issue on permanent paper."  I have never seen an example of one of those newspapers.

In 1936 paper journalist, historian and publisher William Bond Wheelwright published Printing Papers through the University of Chicago Press. The book, of which 2000 copies were printed by R. R. Donnelly & Sons on "Hermes Extra Strong Book Paper," and which claimed to be the "first practical handbook on paper and its relation to printing," dealt with the history and technology of papermaking and the technical issues of the relationship between paper and printing technology in the production of printed matter.
