I believe they were shot through red, green and blue filters, then
printed with three separate red, green and blue light sources.
However, that doesn't account for the paper chemistry.

I didn't realize they could do color that well back then.
Arguably, they couldn't; it was a three-sequential-negatives process,
and really tough to put back together chemically to get a colour
image.
If I'm following the various articles correctly, many of the images
now
available were not available at the time; digital recombination is
much
easier and the Library of Congress had all the possible ones done.
I thought it was 3 monochrome positives projected through 3 separate
filters. Red, green and blue, or something like that. And that
getting the projectors set up properly was the hard part. Or maybe
I'm smoking crack again.
