Solar Plate Etching

Here is a variation of the first image, which was created using a solar plate etching technique. The illustration was printed onto a sheet of acetate, which was then exposed onto a copper plate. With the image now imprinted on the plate, ink was spread on top then the plate was taking through the printing press. The effect is one similar to the art prints of the 1933 release, grainy and dark, the edge of the plate has also created a strong border for the image.
