Re: Colbert - alt photo process?

Hi Dave,
Someone sent us a e-mail to view Niepce's house and workshops- on one of the
photos, it showed someone placing beeswax and lavender oil on the salted
prints.
I even e-mail Judy Seigel about it- it might be in the Post Factory issue
number 4?
Good luck,
Susan
