Page 1 of 1, a sample page, at reduced quality. Open the document to read it in full.
A short 1876 note from The Manufacturer and Builder describing a photographic method of imitating black lace, noticed at the last London exposition. The lace is placed in a printing frame over sensitized albumen paper and exposed for a long time, then fixed and dyed so it can be used as a negative. The result is meant to reproduce lace designs like those covering light silk parasols.
