When Karen & I were in Madrid, we had out portrait done by a street
photographer who was certainly not using direct positive paper. 
The image she took was processed in the camera, dried moderately and
rephotographed by being placed into a holder a set distance from the camera.
It was also processed, washed(sort of) and dried off (sort of). She told me
to wash it out more in the sink when I got back to the hotel.
Since I had expressed so much interest in the process, she also gave me the
paper negative.
Pretty impressive, fast & it delivered an awfully nice image..
I've often thought about building one of those cameras out of a spare
8x10...

     I am pretty sure these used direct-positive paper and probably worked
about like the street photographers cameras. 
The ones I remember from when I was a kid delivered sepia images which may
be a clue as to the process.  They were found in many places.
