October 1810. He moved to Edinburgh, via Paris, when he was 22 before
becoming established in London around 1846. In 1850, Kronheim acquired
a license to operate the Baxter process and adapted it, using zinc
blocks instead of wood blocks. This, however, resulted in a flatter
finish. He then turned to lithography for a short time, but soon returned
to printing by the Baxter process" ref :- E. J. Pratt Library.
