CATALOGUE “E” 1924 . Cancelling all Previous Issues Note to Fourth Edition. In presenting this New Edition we wish to point out to our clients that our entire collection of Negatives has been re-arranged and we have removed from the Catalogue such slides as appeared to be redundant, and also those for which there is little demand. Several new Sections have been added, and, in many cases, old photographs have been replaced by better ones. STOCK SLIDES. Although we hold large stocks of plain slides it frequently happens during the busy Season that particular slides desired have to be made after receipt of the order. Good notice should, therefore, be given. TONED SLIDES.—Most stock slides may be had toned an artistic shade of brown at an extra cost of 6d. each, 4/6 per dozen. A few slides lend themselve 3 to blue or green toning; they may be had so treated at an extra charge of 6d. each. COLOURED SLIDES.—We 1 take special care in the colouring of our slides. Our artists have had many years experience and the colours used have been selected by us for their permanence and transparency. Examples to show the beauty and general high character of our coloured work are always available for inspection. We are not able to keep large stocks as our artists are so fully occupied. Adequate time, therefore, should be allowed when coloured slides are ordered, so as not to rush the work. All slides are made the Standard English Size, 3J x 3| inches, unless ordered otherwise. — 2 —
