NOTES AND QUERIES. 



[2°'» S. No 107., jAlt. 16. '58. 



select their Pictures, at the Suflfblk Street Gallery, on 

 Thursday the 7th instant, with a Conversazione, which 

 was very numerously attended. Professor Cockerell an- 

 nounced that the number of subscribers amounted already 

 to nearly 800 ; and the variety of excellent specimens of 

 Photography by the first artists in Europe which were 

 hung about the room gave good evidence of the activity 

 and judgment of their Committee, and of their desire to 

 gratify the varied tastes of their subscribers. The Ex- 

 hibition affords a good notion of the present advanced 

 state of Photography. 



Apropos of Photographs. Let all collectors of Photo- 

 graphs, Engravings, Drawings, &c., who may be passing 

 through Eathbone Place, call in and see the Patent Lock- 

 up and Self-supporting Portfolios, recently patented by 

 Mr. Harvey, who describes them as being " not only more 

 elegant in appearance than the old kinds, but as much 

 more convenient, as they are opened and closed with 

 greater facility, and also possess the long-desired ad- 

 vantage of keeping their contents free from dust or in- 

 jury, surreptitious inspection or abstraction; while those 

 furnished with struts are self-supporting, which enable 

 the possessors of Drawings, Prints, Maps, Music, and 

 Writings, to exhibit such works to the best possible ad- 

 vantage, without the necessity of separately handling or 

 removing them from these Portfolios." We think they 

 will be found extremely useful for Photographs — by 

 securing the complete exclusion of light — which we be- 

 lieve to be still a great desideratum.
