Remember that this is a 1949 formula! Actually, it rings a bell in my mind.
When I was a kid in the late 1950s, I learned all about photography from reading
books (sometimes quite old) and magazines at the local public library. I seem
to
remember that I tried this formula or something similar

I have an old Gevaert (1949) Photographic manual saying:
you can render paper transparent by using the following formula:
mix together 8 cm3 of camphorated oil, 4 cm3 alcohol, add 1 cm3 of paraffin.
Gently apply that mixture on the back of the paper using a batting.
The coating will dry quickly

There's nothing to stop you from using 4x5 sheets of paper with a 4x5

back right?
No...and you can enlarge them in a 4 x 5 enlarger...and in color too.

Cut the paper negative 4 x 5 and place it in the negative carrier then in

I've done that quite a number of times in the past. The image is highly

from the fiber of the paper. You can oil the paper-negative to make it more
translucent, but you want to be careful not to get messy and oil up your
negative
carrier, lest you clean it throughly afterwards.

Sure, you could use paper too. Of course, your final results would be limited
to 4X5, as you could only contactprint the negative, but if that was what you
wanted, then that should work okay.
