9780894960178: Holography Handbook Making Holograms the Easy Way

Synopsis

Bearing a startling hologram of a skull on its front cover, this volume is a complete, up-to-date reference guide to its subject. For the uninitiated, the first two chapters give a thorough introduction to this complex technology. There is also a chapter on available educational facilities, plus a glossary of technical terms.

For the professional holographer, the central part of the book covers materials and techniques in detail.

Also included is an international listing of over 1000 holography businesses and personalities, plus a 10pp bibliography, including French, German, Portuguese and Russian, as well as English language publications.

As publishers, Ross Books are in the unique position of offering advertising pages which are collector's items in themselves, in this case from American Bank Note Hologaphics (4pp), Light Impressions and Max Image.

From the Publisher

Examples of holograms in these books can be seen at: http://www.holoinfo.com. This collection of books, each with various holograms included, can not and will not be reproduced because of manufacturing restrictions. In addition to the manufacturing problems, many of the companies that made the holograms in the books are out of business. An example would be light impressions with their classic full color embossed hologram still life. This is due to the fact that the value of the books has risen in the collector's market, the books can never be reprinted, and what is in print is all that exists.
