My recollection is that the Sudek show catalog about 4 years ago was
titled something like "The pigment prints" -- such was the lack of process
info by the cataloguers that -- well when I visited the show at ICP with a
talk by whatsername, the very charming lady who championed his work -- I
was the one who had the closest idea of what the dickens they were, and
frankly I sort of made it up. Re-reading the catalog later and from other
sources, I figured they probably were carbon transfer... but I THINK I've
also heard carbro so designated, so it may be an umbrella term. Possibly
even bromoil would be included????
Anyway, thanks for the comment, Randall - I had figured I owed it to the
muse to try oil printing... it's in a bunch of the old books & magazines.
I'll, um, lower the priority. I do recall reading that when xxxxxxx came
along oil printing was superceded. Maybe the xxxxxxxx was carbro?
