"4 albertype plates as extracted from Albertype view books scenery and portraits. Rear cover is an albertype collage of 12 Albertype view books. The Albertype Company, 67 & 69 Spring Street, New York. This very fine small catalogue by the Albertype [Co.] shows how pervasive their promotion of view books was in the United States. Here they are advertising to the Chicago businesses, but obviously they were active throughout the country, witness the number of books published by them."--Hanson Collection catalog, p. 117
