With all the toners about and the resurging
of interest in lith processing how about
some black print papers? Dan

Are you talking about neutral-black printing papers such as Gallerie? Or is there some mystical thought in your mind that we cannot fathom?

I seem to recall that Kentmere had some coloured papers that would give you a white print on a blue background. There might have been some more, but I don't remember them.

The other option would be to use a black paper and do a gum print with white pigment.

I have a old box of photopaper that got totally fogged. If you develop it all out, it will be a beautiful rich black for you!

I'm not playing court jester and have not discovered
from centuries gone by a process long buried and forgotten.
I've the usual sort of emulsions on a black paper in mind.

Of course the results from a usual processing will be a black
image. Sepia or Gold or ... toners will make the image visible.
If the print is lith processed very colorful results against
a black background will result.

Perhaps some who coat their own paper have tried it. Dan

You can coat liquid emulsions on any paper you wish including black art papers. That should satisfy you.
