To finish off a photograph so that it will look like china without enamelling, several simple methods of transferring are available. Among these is the use of Eastman Transferrotype paper, and various makes of stripping P.O.P., which are to be had of photographic dealers. Ordinary P.O.P. may also be used, but the result is somewhat uncertain. In the case of ordinary P.O.P., thoroughly wash the article to which the photograph is to be transferred, then coat it with a weak solution consisting of gelatine 10gr., water l oz., and bichromate of potash 5 gr. Crush the bichromate, and add the gelatine last. Expose the coated side to the light, and wash for some hours. Take a very darkly printed proof finished and dried, but not alumed, soak it in cold water, and then place on the article to be decorated; squeegee the print thoroughly into contact, and dry. Now pour on hot water till the print blisters badly, when the paper may be stripped away. If the water is too hot, the gelatine will melt. Great care must be taken not to move the print, which should be laid flat; and when dry a coat of copal varnish should be applied, and the article baked.

It will then stand careful washing.
