This document discusses early photographic techniques including advertising posters from the period, magazine covers, calotypes developed by Talbot in 1841 which used light-sensitive paper to create the first photographic negatives, allowing images to be reproduced, and the development of photography from daguerrotypes in 1837 which could not be reproduced to advances like glass plate negatives and eventually negative film by George Eastman in 1888.

• To make a print, the negative was placed on top of more
photo paper, laid flat in a glass frame and allowed to develop
in sunlight
