| A page from a proof book for Arguelles, Lopez, and Brothers Cigar Company. Auteur(s) : Arguelles, Lopez and Brothers Cigar Company, 1898 ( Manufacturer ) Auteurs secondaires : Cigar City Collection Résumé : Water was applied to the limestone and was absorbed by the etched sect-ions of the stone. When applied, printing ink for that color adhered only to the image on the stone. Damp paper from the proof book was then pressed to the stone and an image was produced in the color represented by that stone. The same process was repeated for each color in the design (as many as 13 colors were used), the lithographer carefully registering the same piece of paper on each separate stone. Each separate color used in the image required its own stone! (Funding) Funded in part by the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS), Ephemeral Cities Project.
