Thanks for the nice post, appreciated by this old timer. The colorizing
was done nicely, with no Las Vegas screaming colors.

Some of these photos look more evocative in the original b&w, IMO.

I though for sure I'd dislike anything colorized but found them
fascinating.

A member of the camera club I belonged to used to do that.Not sure
exactly when but she deid aged around 80 years old around 1977.


For the age she lived in I would expect she would have used either water
colours or crayons with oil (usually linseed). Both were easy although
crayon with oil seemed to take forever and a day to dry.

Another technique that gave good results under the right conditions but
took a lot of effort was 'Tri-chrome Carbro'. It involved taking 3
negatives (one through each of three filters - red, blue and green) and
printing on clear sensitised stock (again three exposures) and developing
in a hardening developer and fix, etc. Washing the nonexposed parts away
and toning to the correct colours before mounting onto card or whatever
IT TOOK FOREVER.

I had forgotten about this--some of the first movies ever made were
hand-colored--google "George Melies". More than half of the more than
500 that he made have been lost though.
