Always wondered what caused the pink hue found on many OJ's? Perhaps something in the photo development process?

By adding dye, they could make colored albumen prints. Numerous colors are possible, but pink was the most common. The method for doing this was invented in the late 1800s, around the time of the OJs, and the pink OJs are well known for often being too light.
