Speaking of gelatin silver does anyone know any online resources to learn
more about this process. I have done a google search for "gelatin silver"
but it seems all I come across are galleries.

Gelatin is an artsy/technical term for ordinary monochrome printing. The
image is componsed in silver, and is suspended in a gelatin material.
Hence, "gelatin silver".

Calling an ordinary monochrome print a "gelatin silver print" increases its
gallery price by about 50%.
