<< Here is a short extract from my book Creative Sunprinting published by
Focal Press in 1980 describing this procedure for Oil printing but it works
just as well for Bromoil >>
>>Pete, I didn't know you write a book (or books?) Could you give us some
info. about the book (the title seems to suggest that it is not just about
oil printing) and whether it is still in print? Can I buy a copy from you
directly? I am sure this information will be useful to others on the list as
well.<<
>>I am quite interested in the oil printing process. I do have Luis's book and
have access to David Lewis's book on oil/bromoil, but that's about all I have
seen that deals with some details. Your description sounds very interesting,
and I know your approach is very practical and easy for starter to experiment
(I printed a Fotempera successfully almost with just your notes!).<<
Thanks Dave,
Unfortunately the work is well out print but can still be found in
libraries perhaps you or anybody out there can find one and Photo/ copy it
you have my permission, oh that felt good , it is nice to be on the side of
the angels for a change !!. :-)

.
Hope this info is of some use
