- Scope and Content
- This series contains 1 album and loose prints of undated Dufaycolour Slides. The slides are available for viewing. Some are discoloured and have glue residue along sides from once being in an album. Macnamara experimented with Dufaycolour an early format colour film in the 1940's, but was dissatisfied with the results. The Viewbook contains reflective sheets in order to allow the colour slide to be seen by the "Viewer". The page containing the negative must be held perpendicular to the silver sheet and towards a light source for viewing to be successful.
