Abstract
The early history of photography and its antecedents is recounted admirably in the book The Keepers of Light (Crawford, 1979). This text also provides details about different types of papers and chemistry used over the last 150 years or so (including recipes and instructions in their use). Other extremely useful texts on technical aspects of photography are Adams (1948), Engel (1968), Lefkowitz (1985), Stroebel et al. (1986), and a variety of Kodak publications, some of which are referenced at the end of this chapter. Of particular interest are Kodak Publications L-l, L-9, and L-l 0, the first of which is a catalog to all of Kodak’s photographic information, while the other two list professional and specifically scientific products from Kodak.
