Does anyone know what printing process was used to print the Pamela A?
Does Jensen's book address this?
Thanks-

EtA: I understand that according to Pamela's letter they were to be printed by color lithography. But from what I have read there are different kinds of color lithography. Chromolithography is one example which was very popular in the second half of the 19th century. From what I understand about this type of lithography, the images it produces are garrish and not very attractive. Whatever process was used on the Pam A, it looks pretty good to me.
