The Topps "Flexichrome" Process
Posted By: Anonymous
Topps sent me black and white photographs which I converted into color images by using the Kodak Flexichrome process. A black and white negative was made from the image and that was printed on Kodak Flexichrome stripping film. This film created a relief image (different thickness of gelatin which absorbed dyes)and was removed from its support and placed onto white photographic paper.My retouchers (artists)added color, using Flexichrome colors to create the color images. These images were very natural looking because the film absorbed the color according to the density of the image. An airbrush was also used, when necessary.Kodak discontinued the process in the 1970's but the Flexichrome colors are still available for spotting and retouching color prints.
