[Halftone illustrations from photographs in Pagoda shadows].

Publication Year :
1884

Abstract

"12 half-tone illustrations ... from photographs of life in China. Crosscup and West, Philadelphia, did the half-tones using Ives' first patent. This publication is the first of the Ives process books to incorporate the half-tones with the text. The prints are on soft paper as at this point the use of calendered paper was not realized to be far superior."--Hanson Collection catalog, p. 77.
