Trying to figure out what type of glass plate negative i'm working with?
I am working on a preservation project and I am currently looking at glass plate negatives. I'm having an issue figuring out what type they are. I believe they are dry-plate glass negatives due to the uniformity in size, but I cannot tell the emulsion/gelatin side from the photograph side because there are two plates of glass, instead of just one. Help! I've google-ed and yahoo-ed and can't find the answers. Thanks!
Are you sure they aren't positives ?
What you describe sounds more like old fashioned lantern slides which were glass plates with a positive image covered by a sheet of plain glass to protect the emulsion surface.
