Antique 1st edition 1899 Photographic manual THE PERFECT NEGATIVE by Lambert

...M.A., Amateur Photographers Library no. 19 book An antique photographic handbook from " The Amateur Photographer", "The Amateur Photographer" Library No. 19, The Perfect Negative; a series of chapters on after-treatment of the negative by Rev. F.C. Lambert, M.A., First edition 1899 (136 pages) With lots of recipes! Condition: With archival tape throughout the book, splitting to the spine top and bottom. Small and a few larger folds to page corners. Some foxing towards the end of the book. No loose or missing pages, no tears or parts missing. The text looks clean without markings or highlighter. Highly collectible and full of useful information for the analogue photographer, wet-plater, photo retoucher, artists and historians. An original old volume, not a copy, reproduction or digital file! Size: just under 5 x 7 inches (12 x 18 cm) I will be posting a few volumes like this one from my personal collection - I used to be an avid wet plate collodion photographer but no longer have the energy and passion to pursue this hobby and will be letting go of quite a few photography related items.
