Definition of a Carbon Print

[Shane Knight]

Hello All,

I apologize if this as been repeated, but I would like to know the proper definition of a traditional Carbon Print. I am not referring to the digital carbon inkjet. Also I was wondering if I can get a link to a photography terms and definition website.

Thank you for you time and help.

Sounds like Scarpettie is back.

(there was a url link here which no longer exists)

[I don't think this is another Scarpitti alias, Bruce].

This is a good description with links and more detail--

Here's an article by none other than Andrew "Dagor77" Glover on the Carbon Process, with links to descriptions of many other historic processes--

There's also some good info over at bostick-sullivan.com on various alternative processes.

I'm sure Sandy King has a scholarly bibliography at hand on the subject.

Thats what I am looking for.
