. Abstracts of Papers / Brighton and Hove Natural History and Philosophical Society. 37 this flexible plate through the back the print will be reversed again, without losing the necessary sharpness. To illustrate the manifold usefulness of the invention the lecturer showed about two dozen lantern slides, including some remarkable snapshots of outdoor life, children on the Brighton Beach, etc., all printed by Dr. Jumeaux's process. He also showed from the same negatives three-colour prints by the carbon transfer process ; also some colour photos taken half-plate size in block printing and carbon printing, which show by the absence of colour fringes their superiority over three colour prints of which the negatives were taken in succession i)y a repeating back camera. In a conversation we had lately with the lecturer he said : " I had hoped to find such interest in Brighton (the birthplace of the invention), or in London, as to be able to launch out in a commercial enterprise, but I find the proverb is true: ' The prophet is not acknowledged at home.' However, the Imperial Austrian School of Photography has taken a great interest in my auto-didactic studies and advancements in colour ; The diagrams given were explained on an actual camera by the lecturer. Fig. 1 represents a glass interposed at an angle to the light cone coming from a lens, and shows the re- flections and Fig. 2 is the skeleton of a camera. T = Orange red Reflector T 2 = Compensation. P = Place for Back Plate. P 1 = Place for Top Plates.
