There is still plenty of time left
to do Christmas shopping, but the
deadline has just arrived if you are
planning to make your own pho
tographic greeting cards. You can
either have them made from one
Of your negatives by your photo
finisher or, better still, you can
make them yourself. Best of all,
you will be able to send a truly per-
sonal greeting from you and your
family at cost which is only a
little more than you would pay for
the usual printed forms.
If you don't have a darkroom
available for your use, you can dig
out an appropriate negative from
your flles-or make one-and take
it to a Anisher. He will have many
styles of photo greeting cards for
you to select from, or you can have
them custom made to your own
taste. Color fans who have a favor
ite transparency can sefid them to
one of several color labs specializing
in Christmas cards in color. Al
though considerably more expensive
than the black and white cards,
they are not as much as one might
expect. One color firm charges from
so cents each down to IS cents each
in larger quantities. This price in
cludes mounts and matching en-
velopes.
With the black and white variety,
we can tone them or color them by
hand with either oil or water colors.
Either of these steps is easy for the
average photographer. Many types
of negatives are suitable for this
procedure. You can use your own
portrait, picture of a family group,
snow scene from last season, last
years Christmas tree with the chill
dren around it, or you can make
table top set up with tree ornaments,
toy figures and lettering cut from
an old magazine.
Printing Kit Available.
The easiest method of making
your own greeting cards Is with one
of the standard kits that can be
purchased from your photo dealer.
These kits contain masks for both
vertical and horizontal printing.
They also contain a paper guide
and a number of negatives from
Which to print the usual verse or
phrases of greeting which you may
wish to include on your card. If
you prefer to have an original mes
sage you can print the words-or
write them-on sheet of paper
and copy this with your camera to

produce negative for the same
purpose.
The contact method Of printing is
used for speed of operation. Use a
contact printer if you have one. Ii
not you can do just as we'll with a
printing frame, except that this
procedure is somewhat slower. In
stead of making a few prints and
developing them as you go along, it
will save much time if you print all
of the cards at one time and de-
velop them in patches. To do this
you will have to make number of
trial prints until you know exactly
how long the exposure should be.
Then you can run off the whole lot
at one time.
Double Exposure Process.
Let's assume that you will be using
a kit purchased from your photo
store. For a double printing JOB
you will first place the paper guide
in position either in the printing
frame or on the contact printer.
This should be held in place by a
bit of adhesive. Then the negative
containing the message or greeting
is placed against this and sheet
of printing paper exposed. Develop
this one sheet as test. If 1t comes
up nicely you can proceed to give
the other cards their first exposure.
After exposing each card be sure
that it and all the other cards that
have been exposed are stacked in
such a way that when you are ready
TO make the second exposure you
will be certain to get them in the
same position in the printing frame
or on the printer. Otherwise the
lettering may appear on the wrong
end of the card or inverted in rela-
ton to the picture.
After all the cards have been ex-
posed for the first time remove the
paper guide and place the picture
mask in its stead. Then center your
picture negative and tape it in place
Now you are ready for the final
printing. Again expose and de-
velop one or more prints until you
have determined the correct ex-
posure time-then 60 ahead and fin
ish the entire lot at one time.
When developing the prints it will
pe advisable to handle as few as
possible until you can tell at
glance just when the picture should

try to handle too many at one time
