Abstract
THIS very complete and practical book contains hints to the photographer who wishes to make use of his pictures for press purposes. The editors acknowledge that this is a new departure in photographic literature, but the fact that the present edition is the second indicates that a want has been supplied. So large is the number of illustrated journals, books, &c., at the present time, and they are still on the increase and likely to become much more numerous, that time and possibly disappointments will be saved to the photographer if he becomes acquainted with many of the hints included in the present issue. In addition to some general remarks about the relation of the editor and publisher to the photographer, practical field and workshop methods are also discussed. Interesting and valuable information on the copyright union, copyright law, permits to photograph, &c., are next taken up, and lastly there are lists ot agents for press photograms, publishers of picture post-cards, and the principal illustrated periodicals with all up-to-date information, such as class of print preferred, size of page, date and time to which originals are usually received for current issue, &c.
