296.01, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Multiplying Camera Obscura to represent on the same surface a number of different pictures, or the same in various aspects, the portraits of several persons, &c. The novelty consists in moving the prepared plate by means of racks and pinions in a vertical and horizontal direction, thus making several parts of the surface pass alternately before an opening placed at the focus of the lens. A sculptor being supplied with seven different aspects of the features of the same person, is enabled, without seeing that person, to make a perfect bust or model. [Extracted from longer entry] Not Listed
296.02, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Photographometer, to measure the intensity of the direct photogenic rays, and to compare the sensitiveness of various photographic preparations. Not Listed
296.03, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Dynactinometer, to measure the intensity of the reflected photogenic radiation and to compare the power of lenses or object glasses. Not Listed
296.04, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Focimeter. It is impossible to obtain well-defined photographic pictures, without previously ascertaining the exact position of the photogenic focus, which is easily done by taking the image of the focimeter on a photographic surface, and comparing the segments of the apparatus with the image, then on the ground glass and the photographic surface. Not Listed
296.05, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Screens, to modify the action of light on the various parts of the figure in taking portraits, and thus obtain artistic effects. Not Listed
296.06, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Patent photographic camera-obscura. The novelty consists in its being possible to adapt to it with the greatest facility any system of object-glasses, to change them at will according to the power wanted, and also to use plates of any size; each having a separate moveable frame, in which the ground glass and plate fit the same groove. Without the least alteration it will serve for silver plates or paper, and answer either for views or portraits. Not Listed
296.07, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Dark-boxes, for containing the prepared plates, and carrying them to and from the camera-obscura. Not Listed
296.08, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Brass Frames, to hold two plates, face to face, without contact. Not Listed
296.09, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Mercury Box. The novelty is that a number of plates of various sizes may be mercurialised at once in a vertical position, and that the heat is applied by the uniform temperature of boiling water. Not Listed
296.10, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Apparatus for cleaning and finishing a daguerreotype plate, without burning the oil in a vertical position, and that the heat is applied by the uniform temperature of boiling water. Not Listed
296.11, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Bromine of iodine. Iodine and Bromine combined in the proportions found to afford means giving the plate the highest state of sensitiveness. Not Listed
296.12, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Daguerreotype pictures, plain and coloured. Representation of objects of art, scientific experiments on the effect of the various rays, illustrations of the non-coincidence of the visual and photogenic foci, portraits from nature, taken by means of a prism placed before the object glass, in order to obtain an non-inverted picture. Not Listed
296.13, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Photographic table; showing that photographic productions may be employed in various ways as in the ornamental part of drawing-room furniture. Not Listed
296.14, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Daguerreotype plates, perfectly plane and free from specks, forming true mirrors. Not Listed
296.15, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Photogenic paradox, showing that what is light for the eyes is darkness for the photogenic action a frame containing, on one half, the portrait of the Queen, covered with yellow glass, and on the other half the portrait of Prince Albert, covered with deep blue glass, being represented on a daguerreotype plate. The result is that the yellow glass, although showing clearly to the eyes the picture of Her Majesty, has prevented the photogenic action, and that the deep blue glass, although completely hiding the portrait of Prince Albert, the photogenic rays reflected by his picture through the blue glass have had the same action on the daguerreotype as if the engraving had been covered with transparent glass, or with no glass at all. This experiment proves why when light appears yellow on account of vapours existing in the atmosphere, the photogenic action is always so feeble and altogether impeded. Not Listed
296.16(1), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Frame containing six specimens: Light of a candle represented on a daguerreotype plate Not Listed
296.16(2), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Image of a statue produced by the continued action of light on a daguerreotype plate, without any mercury; the white forming the image is due to a fine precipitate of the silver combined with iodine, taking place under the action of light during the decomposition of the compound. Not Listed
296.16(3), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Negative portrait produced on a plate first exposed to light and in that state having received the image of the camera obscura through yellow glass; this proves the destructive action of the yellow rays in the photographic operation, and that the yellow rays are not only antagonistic to the photogenic rays, but that they destroy the effect produced by the last. Not Listed
296.16(4), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Image of the sun produced during a clear atmosphere. Not Listed
296.16(5), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Image of the sun when it appears red through a fog. Not Listed
296.16(6), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Image of the moon produced during a clear night. Not Listed
296.17(1), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Frame containing four specimens: Image of the solar spectrum on iodide of silver. Not Listed
296.17(2), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Image of the solar spectrum on bromo-iodine of silver. Not Listed
296.17(3), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Experiment of the focimeter, showing the differences between the visual and photogenic focus and their variation. Not Listed
296.17(4), v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Experiment of the dynactinometer, showing the intensity of the photogenic light at any given moment, for the various spaces of time in a geometrical progression. It is curious to observe the small differences produced by a double intensity. Not Listed
296.18, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Image of clouds, taken instantaneously during boisterous weather. Interesting study for artists. Not Listed
296.19, v 1, Class 10, United Kingdom 1851, London, Great Exhibition Frame containing the various colours of water colour, and another the daguerreotype representation of the first. This experiment shows that all the tints of blue, indigo, and violet, produce white in photography, and that all tints of green, yellow, orange, and red, produce black, or rather they have no photogenic action.
