The print of the right index finger was made in the usual fashion with ink on the back of the tag, then sprinkled with asphaltum powerer and then heated to dry and fuse them together. The monel plate tag with 2 holes was then placed in acid to etch the metal leaving a raised finger print. Text details were either written by hand with diluted printers ink and etched the same way or marked with a Graphotype machine. Information from the following document and others
