Details |
A colour photograph album invented by M. P Duchenne. In 1910, technology had not enabled colour images to be printed on paper, only as glass plates. Transparencies had to be held to the light to be viewed. The self-illuminating album allowed plates to be turned and viewed over two electric lamps.
