Former alt-photo list member Luis Nadeau has also produced Fresson prints.
I believe he is the only other one that owns the rights to produce Fresson
prints.
He acquired rights to the process from Jose Ortiz Echage in 1979.
More info at Luis' site http://www.photoconservation.com - take the
process museum link and look for Fresson. The opening graphic is an image
of a Fresson print.
Chris - not sure if you want info a Howell-Koehler's book - I have it next
to the computer :)
