[25 February 1839]
Source of text:
RS:HS 18.147
Summary:

Invites JH to Kew Green to see Francis Bauer's plates etched by J. N. Niepce's photographic process. Perhaps L. J. M. Daguerre assumes more credit than is due. Heard Niepce visited London in 1826, but his paper was rejected by R.S.L. at W. H. Wollaston's urging.
