Ambrotype:
The ambrotype, also called a collodion positive in the UK, is a positive photograph on glass made using a variation of the wet collodion process. Like a paper print, it is viewed by reflecting light. Like the daguerreotype, which it replaced, and the prints produced by a Polaroid camera, each print is a unique original that can only be reproduced with a camera.The ambrotype was introduced in the 1850s. In the 1860s, it was replaced by the tintype, a similar photograph on a thin, black-lacquered iron plate, difficult to distinguish from an ambrotype under glass.
