Duplicating film is a "positive" B/W material; it produces a direct copy of whatever it shoots. So you can duplicate negatives with it, OR prints. In other words, you can use it to make a projectable reproduction of a B/W print, if that's what you want.

Oh, this is the thorn in my million pound discovery! haha I thought I had found a Alfred Stieglitz negative but I guess this is more likely..

Much more likely, yes. What format is your "discovery" in? remember, Stieglitz was shooting large format (8x10 plates usually) for most of his career...

I didn't know a lot about him up until last night whilst reading a book I recognised one of his prints to a negative I had, and after scanning it was the exact image.
It's a mounted 35mm positive.
The first commercial 35mm still camera wasn't produced until 1913... so, it's probably a dup.
Ok, so he's got an Alfred Stieglitz original negative, shot with a heretofore unknown prototype 35mm camera, two full years before the 35mm camera was introduced to the rest of the world.... Sounds like surefire eBay bait to me. ;-)

I like this explanation, Yeah I might make a nice print from it?
