In Stanley Page's bibliography, there turned out to be three citations
that were actually in the collection of the Library I work beneath
(Media Services is in the basement). First time I've actually had my
hands on the actual original paper copies!

Together in one file are three very short articles from Scientific
American
A one dollar photographic outfit, July 4, 1891. Report on a complete
kit including a pinhole camera, plates. paper, trays and chemistry.
Lensless photography, by N.R. Briggs, July 16, 1904. Basic description
of pinhole photography.
The Slit Camera, February 15, 1916. Report on the slit camera and how
images are changed by using a slit instead of a pinhole.
