 Be sure to postal me for this booklet 



With this Backing, which is most easily applied and removed ordinary glass 

 plates, are made, perfect. It prevents that white fog around light objects, 

 renders perspective truthfully, lends atmosphere and removes all restrictions 

 as to source or intensity of light. With Backed Plates you can take Natuie 

 as you find her, truthfully and artistically. 



The latest and best article for filling in holes in the negative, as no spot will 

 show on the print. Also for touching up all black and white prints. Two 

 shades of medium to match any tint. Anyone can use it, and improve negatives 

 and prints amazingly. Spot your negatives before printing, or before sending 

 them to be printed, for best results. 



Mybooklet, "Halation, What It Is and How to Prevent it; also Hints on 

 Intensifying." With Illustrations. Sent free.

A Good Formula Free 



To save plates use a Wager Ex- 

 posure Scale. It tells you the cor- 

 rect exposure in every case, and 



saves its cost in a month. No sensitized paper, no multiplying in the head — that's a 



nuisance, and besides you may make a mistake. Endorsed by the Editor of Recreation. 



Post free, 50 cents. Aluminum $1.00. Your money returned if you don't like it. Send 



a postal for our Booklet No. 5, lots of hints and formulas.
