A ton of color pictures from 1900-1915.

"The process used involved a camera that would take a set of three photographs. These pictures would be monochrome but each picture would be taken using a filter of a different color. When all three monochrome pictures were projected (using light which had to be specifically colored) then the original color scene could be reconstructed."

Awesome :)

Always love old photography and when done in such a unique way to achieve a result only common years later is inspiring.
 
Indeed. I think i might try this out - i think i just need a green filter. - Be interesting to see the outcome. I am sure it could even be wangled via lightroom or something to that effect
