A PICTORIAL AND LITERARY RECORD
Of the Best Photographic Work of the Year.
Arranged by the Editors and Staff of
THE PHOTOGRAM.”
To be followed next year by “Photograms of ’96.”

Photograms of ’95 aims to represent modern photography as “Royal Academy Pictures,” “Pictures of the Year,” &c., represent the arts of painting and sculpture.

The Work consists of 96 pages, super-royal 8vo (9¾ by 6½), and is printed on heavy “art printing” paper.

The Illustrations are the finest possible photo-mechanical (half-tone) reproductions, and are made by the MEISENBACH CO., West Norwood.

There are about thirty full-page reproductions, and the same number of smaller sizes, mostly half-page, as well as

Four Chemigraph Supplements, printed by the NATIONAL CHEMIGRAPH CO., of St. Louis, New York, and Chicago, U.S.A., and mounted on handsome boards. They represent the four principal imitations of pure photography by photo-mechanical process, and as the work of the NATIONAL CHEMIGRAPH CO. has not been published in England, will be a revelation to photographers and photo-mechanical workers alike, of the latest possibilities in “process” work. It will be quite impossible to repeat these supplements, and therefore impossible to supply any copies that may be demanded after the first edition is exhausted.

The Literary Portion of the work includes critical notices of the two great British Photographic Exhibitions, and special articles on the work of the year in the English-speaking countries and colonies by some of the best-qualified writers in each country. Amongst them are

BRITISH ISLES:—GLEESON WHITE, assisted by the staff of The Photogram.

UNITED STATES:—ALFRED STIEGLITZ, Editor of The American Amateur Photographer.

CANADA:—A. M. CUNNINGHAM, President of The Photographic Association of Canada.

The British Exhibitions of The Royal Photographic Society and The Salon have supplied most of the originals for reproduction, but some of the gems of the provincial exhibitions are also included.

Non-Exhibited Pictures are represented as far as possible, for the aim is to embrace the whole field of the year’s work.

American, Colonial, &c., work is represented by a few typical pictures, selected by the gentlemen who supply the matter dealing with the work of the various countries.

The Scientific and Practical applications of photography are not ignored, though the bulk of the space is devoted to art works. Some of the latest achievements in astronomy, microscopy, &c., are illustrated by reproductions of the finest recent work.

The Edition is Limited to 10,000 copies.

Order early. Ready October 20th.

These steam presses, which have been used with excellent results for many years in the first collotype establishments of all countries, and which contain all the latest improvements, are supplied by the makers with the guarantee of the highest and most complete power of working. By means of the most solid

construction and the best and faultless make of these Collotype Steam Presses, the finest results have been attained. The arrangement of the duplicate inking of the printing plate, as well as the double pressure of the sheet, is suitable for the most difficult work. The saving of time by the arrangement is a great advantage of these machines.

When desired these presses can be fitted with automatic mask and laying-on table; they can also be arranged for lithography without the automatic mask and table, but with feeding apparatus.

The newest discovery, a contrivance for mechanically damping the printing plate, patented in all civilized countries, can be supplied to order.

OUR MACHINES ARE IN USE BY ALL THE FIRST-CLASS COLLOTYPE PRINTERS IN THE WORLD; ABOUT 100 MACHINES BEING IN USE IN ENGLAND ALONE.
Lithographic Steam Presses, in all sizes.
Steam Presses for Zincography, in three sizes.
Bronzing Machines, four sizes of approved construction.

Original spel­ling and gram­mar have been generally retained, with some excep­tions noted below. Original printed page numbers are shown like this: {52}. Foot­notes have been relabeled 1–3, and moved from within para­graphs to nearby locations between para­graphs. A few mis­sing full stops were inserted, for example after “avoided” on page 49. The tran­scriber pro­duced the cover image and hereby assigns it to the public domain. Ditto marks have been removed and replaced by repe­ti­tions of the referenced text. Original page images are avail­able from archive.org—search for “photolithography00frit”.

There are twenty-four advertisements at the end of the book. A new heading is added at the beginning of that section.

  • Page 2. “thought than an English translation” is changed to “thought that an English translation”.
  • Page 38. In the sentence “If the desired blackening is not effected with one application the operation must be completed”, it seems likely that “completed” should be “repeated”.
  • Page 39. “Gum arabic 17.5” to “Gum arabic 17·5”.
  • Page 53. “procesess” to “processes”.
  • Page 56. “tranfers” to “transfers”.
  • Page 61. “C6H3(CH3)3” to “C6H3(CH3)3”.
  • Page 69. “great intensity on the sensitive will” to “great intensity on the sensitive plate will”.
  • Page 73. “½ to 1 mm. (=1?/?12–1?/?25th inch)” to “½ to 1 mm. (=1?/?50–1?/?25th inch)”, though other in­ter­pre­ta­tions are pos­sible. For example, the similar instance on page 85 “50–80 cm. (=24 to 36 ins.)” is also wrong (or, more charitably, inac­curate), but is re­tained as printed.
  • Page 81. “transfering” to “transferring”.
