photo litho and letterpress?

Any info would be welcomed...circa 1920?

I'd guess a half-tone block + letterpress, given the age of it. Here
is (ahem! ahem!) another example of the use of half-tone blocks in a
letterpress production from the 1920s:

OK.
Can we put you on the spot,
and ask for an explanation how the half tone was achieved.
What was the process?

Nay, lad.

The latter chap is more likely from Bradford than Leeds.

Thanks Blair,
during the 1970's I used to print slogan T shirts for a living,
that process took the silk screen with film, exposure to light
to harden the positive, and wash out the remainders.

With the Barwani's I wondered how the physical process
was achieved, how the image was made and transferred to the cliche.
The material of the cliche, etc.

Rodney, unfortunately, there's no record of who made the Barwani
plates, let alone how they were made. I have an exhaustive
description (extending over several pages) of the process in 'Printing
To-day', John C. Tarr, OUP, 1945, but presumably it was done in the
same way as half-tone blocks were prepared for newspapers in the olden
days. I daresay a young chap like you wouldn't remember them, but
take it from an elderly gent that it indeed was once quite common to
find half-tone illustrations in the daily papers.
