Information and discussion on all aspects of British photographic history

Hi Michael,
thank you for this very kind offer! Here is the complete reference:
TILNEY, F. C., Colour Reproduction from the Point of View of the Man in the Street, in: British Journal of Photography (Colour Photography Supplement), Bd. 1, Nr. 6, 1907 (7.6.1907), 41–42.
The sentence I am reffering to is at the end of the first paragraph on page 41.
As I suspected the sentence referes to moving pictures. In this context the 'plain' appears to refer to black and white moving pictures as part of a comparison Tilney is making to colour in still photography.
Michael.

Caroline,
I think Matthew Mawson is correct in suggesting that Antoine Samuel Adam-Salomon, (1818-1881) is probably the Salomon you're looking for. He studied photography with Franz Hanfstaengl in Munich in 1858 and was quite well-known during his lifetime. He was also well-known to English writers on photography such as the British Journal of Photography Almanac's editor J. Traill Taylor. The Philadephia Museum of Art has a number of images on-line:

There was also a Louis Salomon, a German photographer who was active in the the 1870's-1880's and who participated a few exhibitions in 1875, 1876, 1880 and 1883 but can't really tell you much else about him.
