Hi,
I was watching Antiques Road Show and they had a photograph on
there that was called a "Ivorytype" They claimed that there were only a
few of them known to be in existence from the 1850's .. It was hard for
me to get a close look as I live right next to downtown Cleveland ,
Ohio, so the reception is awful... but it looked very much like a oil
painting ..... Does anyone know of this process?
The photo was a portrait of a well known historical person who
invented the submarine , and I think they valued it at $4000 to $6000..
