[alt-photo] Re: a new old process

[John Brewer]

Hi Alberto

Frederick Scott Archer patented a method of stripping collodion images from
glass so they could be transferred to other substrates such as cloth and
leather. I've been doing some research on Archer and a few weeks ago saw an
example on cloth at The National Media Museum, Bradford, UK which is thought
to be by Archer. As far as I know from talking to the curators this is the
only example in The NMM and Royal Photographic Society collections so wasn't
popular for some reason, maybe because there wasn't a need for it or was
difficult to do.

John.

Subject: [alt-photo] a new old process

I have found for the first time that there was a process called "pannotipo" 
in Italian, which translation could be "clothtype", made of a collodion 
print on a dark oilcloth. That is, a tintipe on cloth.
Have you never heard about it? What is its true name in Englilsh? 

Alberto
