Anotations

Scope note:

Prints made from a direct-process duplication technique using gelatin. The gelatin process uses a master or transfer paper upon which the image to be duplicated is rendered with a special ink or ribbon. This master is then pressed against a moist gelatinous plate, to which the image is transferred in reverse. Sheets of paper pressed against this ink-imbibed gelatin receive the image. This may be achieved either manually on the plate or flatbed or a rotary machine. Multicolored prints may thus be produced in one operation. Prints pulled in this way usually number under 200.
