Fast taking the place of all old-style Albums. Examine this Album before buying another. It is Superior to all others for family use, and for Holiday, Birthday and Wedding Gifts. Notice the following Patent Advantages.: This Album has a flexible metallic extension, hinged back, composed of nickle stubs, which form the back of the book. Each leaf can be taken from its place and put in any other part of the book. A soiled leaf can be discarded and a new one replaced by anyone, without the aid of a book binder. The book can be increased to any thickness by adding new leaves and metal hinges. When the Album becomes too thick to look well it can be divided into two or more books by getting new sets of covers. The leaves containing the photographs can be taken from the Album as passe-partout, to exhibit the pictures. It is ornamental, convenient,durable and sensible. It is the only satisfactory Album for photographs ever made. Not being sold at the stores, it can only be had from our authorized agents.
