I suspect that you are correct, Chuck. Herb had a portrait studio at one time, and I have some hand tinted portraits that were done by his wife, so it is quite possible that they hand tinted head shots and furnished them to the bracelet maker.

Given the time period and the look of the color I would say B&W images that were hand tinted... the common technology of the time. Wiki's timeline of photogaphy says: "1942 – Kodacolor, the first color film that yields negatives for making chromogenic color prints on paper. Roll films for snapshot cameras only, 35 mm not available until 1958."

So maybe they are chromogenic prints but they look hand tinted to me.

I have no idea of the photo process, but the images are well preserved.
