It is possible - the earliest paper/ printed images date to about 1841

Herschel had perfected the process of capturing images to glass plates in the 1820's.


If these artefacts can be "proved" then they would truely reflect the pioneering days of image capture and printing.

My instinct is the later - Junior Thomas ROOK, however I have an open mind :-)
