"[9] phototypes from photographs of scenery. [17] half-tones from photographs of scenery. Collotypes by Brit[t]on & Rey, San Francisco. Another Brit[t]on & Rey printing job with some of the plates showing a high degree of skill. The images are an interesting mixture of the half-tone and the collotype. The pictorial cover drawn from photographs is very good. According to a review in the Photographic Times the collotypes in the first edition were by the American Bank Note Company."--Hanson Collection catalog, pp. 110-111
