THE 0 OF THE WORK..

A lover of pictures. a man of means, making tour Of the art
galleries of the world, realized that the luxury of seeing all these
beauties was limited to the very wealthy. and to them only by
wearsome and expensive travelling and time. ''Why not in the
present age of perfect Photographic reproduction, Why not reproduce
the most beautiful. the most popular, the most noted Of these art
treasures I" was the question he asked himself. Why not indeed
no sooner thought of than he applied his means and prestige to Sc.
cure large and perfect photographs Of the choice pictures.
The result is MASTERPIECES FROM THE ART GALLERIES OF
THE WORLD" The original idea was to issue the book in parts
just as S now being done; but to charge 81 5oa parton s1ooin all.
Now, a syndicate Of newspaper publishers has purchased the photo
graphs and plates, and Is issuing them to "Boom Crculation."
Now, everyone may have this magnificent work, which was
originally intended for the rich mans palace.
Such is the force of nineteenth century invention, machinery,
enterprise, and DESIRE FOR GREAT CIRCULATION.
