There used to be talk about collotype on this list. Searching through
the archives is beginning to look like your best bet.
I did just do a quick web search using AltaVista to verify that the
altphoto archives are accesible this way, and also located the URL
http://www.megalink.net/~shattenb/collotyp/collotyp.htm
Some of the people that talked about this process in the past mentioned
using aluminum plates rather than glass. I don't know if that is a great
advantage, but you'd probably have less of a chance of breaking the
plates.
At any rate, I'd be interested in knowing what you find out. I've been
threatening to try this process for some time now.
