[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I came across a good read today on the google book search site. It is The American Annual of Photography from 1913. It is a pdf file that can be downloaded or read online. It is 300 or so pages of essays by different individuals on the state of photography in 1913. It is loaded with photos that are superb considering the antiquated equipment of the time or for that matter for the equipment we have at our disposal today. As you read it is striking that the authors of 100 years ago were discussing some of the same subjects we address on the LUG today.If you find this file interesting there are several more issues on the same site ranging from 1884 to 1923. Just do a google book search being sure to check the full view box and use the dates of 0 to 1923. 1923 being the last date that all copyrights have expired. http://books.google.com/books?id=l-9IAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA325&dq=The+american+annual+of+photography+date:0-1923&lr=&as_brr=0#PPR10,M1 *http://tinyurl.com/5gderl* Jack
