One thing, perhaps only of interest to me, is that orotones had the photographic image printed from a negative onto the glass, which is unlike daguerreotypes, ambrotypes and tintypes. Those last three are essentially negatives (the images made to look positive by a backing). This should explain how everything, including any text, will appear normal on the orotone-- where everything is reverse in the other photos.
