doing

the
printing. (sigh)

If I remember correctly, they ended up with a brown and white finish. ?

The ones I did were blue and white. I used large format negatives in
contact with a paper I made myself -- don't remember the exact formula,
but the dark agent was ferric ferricyanide.


Yes.,they were brown and would fade in time. I rinsed them in a plain 5%
Sodium Thiosulfate solution and they turned green and became permanent.
