Paris: C. Klary, 1902. Paperback. First edition. Poor paperback: the covers are detached and chipped at the edges; the front cover has been trimmed at the sides and has a couple of long tears; most of the forms are separated; all pages are present and the ad pages haven't even been trimmed. BOOKS SHIP THE NEXT BUSINESS DAY, WRAPPED IN PADDING, IN A BOX. Nudes and figure studies by European and American photographers. The section of photography-related advertisements at the end includes a number for American photography journals, Klary's school of photography, printers, photo-societies, equipment suppliers, Kodak products, etc. LAID IN are two photo-gravures of nudes on a heavy paper stock which appear to be inserts to advertise the printer or are perhaps from a different publication.

Braillard, Comte C. de Clugny, H. Erfurth, P. Hetzler Jr., R. Le Begue, A. Lemoine, C. Pluschow, C.
