Default 1921 W-UNC Self Developing Strip Cards

Posted By: identify7

I am still learning, or trying to learn about these type of cards. Please correct me where I am wrong.

This type of card typically is composed of two pieces. One piece is the negative and the other is photoigraphic paper. The actual card is produced by the purchaser of this equipment by assembling the two components and exposing them to light.

If this is true, the purchaser can make as many cards as he chooses, simply by obtaining additional photographic paper.

And if that is true, the actual card should have little value compared to the value of the negative. Particularly because one could buy vintage photographic paper today and "legitimately" create as many new cards as he chooses.

Can this status be true?
