Description: | Many early cameras produced pictures not on film but on plates. These plates were made of glass coated with a light-sensitive emulsion. Joseph Swan, the Tyneside inventor, was originally trained as a chemist, and one of his developments was such a coating for photographic plates. The plates were produced in different sizes to fit various types of camera. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | living in the North East leisure | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
