Just a reminder that non-fluorescence will not be conclusive either way. Lots of modern paper & inks do not fluoresce, and it is trivial to select ones that don't fluoresce, or use old stock, if you care to do so. Optical brighteners tend to give paper a bluish tint, which can disrupt the intended hues of a particular image, so there is plenty of paper available without brighteners for those who desire it, such as artists. If it does fluoresce though, that is definitive proof that the materials are not of the proposed period.
