Yeah, not having tried it myself I can't say if it would show or not.
But acetate is cheap and easily cut so you could at least minimise
it's apearance (such as by keeping it all within the border).

In that case, I think acetate might be the best bet. White images
would be easiest since you the acetate would be a positive and you'd
do it during your normal print exposure. But, it might not show that
well (depending on the image). If you wanted black, you'd need to have
the acetate (or similar) done as a negative and do it as a seperate
flashing of the paper after the normal exposure.

Yes, I'd like to be in the position to be offering some prints up as
limited editions and commanding respectable prices for them but I'm
not there yet. Just starting to explore what options I have for
selling prints.
