Originally published in 1907, e Wet Plate Collodion Process by Arthur Payne is an excellent historical reference for anyone interested in wet plate collodion photography. This book is an introduction to the use of dry and colour sensitive collodion plates for process work. It offers the reader a complete guide to the many disciplines within the wet collodion process, including ferrotypes, lantern slides, line and half-tone negatives and colour sensitive collodion plates. The author discusses in detail the dark room, apparatus, chemicals and materials required, together with outlining the theory and history of the process. Contained within the twelve chapters and appendix are a collection of formulas for developers, intensifiers and silver bath used in the process.


This book was first published by Mawson & Swan of Newcastle-on-Tyne, one of the biggest manufacturers of photographic collodion in the United Kingdom from the 1850s onwards.
