Color values in monochrome is a 1901 lecture by J. S. Plaskett, delivered before the Canadian Institute in Toronto, on orthochromatic photography and how colours translate into black and white tones. Its pictures are halftone photographs of a colour test chart, with a ring of coloured segments, a central bar pattern and squares, shown on different plates and screens, so a designer can compare how each filter renders the same hues as grey values.
