Item Information

Title:
The moon considered as a planet, a world, and a satellite
Description:
"26 plates - 1 chromolithograph and 25 woodburytypes from photographs of the moon and models. This copy has severe separations of the emulsions on at least half the woodburytypes. This is not a completely unknown problem but is seen usually in woodburytypes produced in the United States. However this raises the issue that the flaking off of particularly the thickest area of emulsion may also be caused by storage conditions."-- David A. Hanson documentation
