How do you print from an old halftone photoengraving?

In: Photography, How-To [Edit categories]

Answer:

Since this is a basic part of letterpress printing, you will have to apply the appropirate ink to the surface with a satisfactory roller. Then apply paper under pressure to transfer the image. Upon removal of the paper, you will find the image has been transferred. In the event you are also using letterpress type, the photo-engraving must be on a block and maybe packed to raise it to "Type-High".
