Excerpt from The University of Kansas Science Bulletin, Vol. 37: Part II.; June 29, 1956
Standard weight blotting paper was used for the reconstruction. The methods were developed step by step as the work progressed. Briefly the procedure was as follows: the slides were placed in a projector and an enlarged image of each section was cast upon the blotting paper, a tracing was made of each image, and the tracings were then cut out and assembled with glue in consecutive order. A carbon arc projector with a 45-degree angle projection prism was used.
