I think we all turn the the "Technical Information" section when we go through a book of photos. I love knowing what camera/lens/film combo took the picture - it all goes into the data bank. And certainly knowing whether a print was a traditional photo process or some variant of squirt printing is helpful, especially if you're thinking about trying out a different process.

Anyone who knows me from this and other groups knows that the image is primary with me but I do love to know those kinds of things. I love to know whether the developer was Rodinal or D76 or Xtol or some homebrew split process.
