Context

Country: Canada
State/Province: Ontario
Period: PLATES USED FOR A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD (EG., NEGS FOR 1947 CARS - USED ONLY FOR THAT PRODUCTION YEAR).
Canada: PLATES USED TO PRINT CONTEMPORARY PRODUCT ADS, PREMIUMS, BOOK COVERS, CALENDARS & CATALOGUES DEPICTING STYLES & TRENDS POPULAR IN VARIOUS PERIODS OF CANADIAN HISTORY.
Function: Unknown
Technical: USE OF GLASS IN PRODUCTION OF LINE & HALF TONE NEGS FOR PHOTOLITHOGRAPHY (OFFSET) NOW OBSOLETE. GLASS PLATES ARE DIFFICULT TO STORE & HANDLE BUT UNLIKE EARLY FILM THEY HAD A BETTER DEGREE OF PHOTO-MANIPULATION (ESP. IN WET PLATE), DID NOT SHRINK OR DISTORT, COULD BE REUSED, & WERE CHEAPER THAN FILM. FILM ONLY GAINED POPULARITY WHEN IT WAS SPECIFICALLY ENGINEERED FOR USE BY THE GRAPHICS ARTS INDUSTRY.
