The E-Sylum: Volume 4, Number 34, August 19, 2001, Article 12 NUMISMATIC PHOTOGRAPHIC QUESTIONS Recent subscriber Nick Graver of Rochester NY, seeks thoughts on two issues. He may be reached at this email address: ngraver@rochester.rr.com. 1. What is the earliest publication, of any sort, that contains an actual numismatic photograph bound-in as an illustration? 2. What is the earliest genuine "book" that contains an original photograph as a numismatic illustration? This would not include auction catalogs, or periodicals, journals, or magazines. I am thinking of a book with text dealing with a topic, that includes a photo as illustration. Note, in both cases, we are not seeking engravings or other artwork taken from photos, but publications with actual photos mounted in the pages. I have a slide lecture on Photographic Numismatics, which includes every possible example of numismatic item related to Photography, and all photographic antiques that touch on the Numismatic theme. Answers to # 1 & 2 will probably interest the whole group. Any other suggestions about Photographic/Numismatic items will be most welcome, and may be sent directly 'off-line' to spare the group."
