Excerpt from Catalogue of Engraved Portraits of Noted Personages Principally Connected With the History, Literature, Arts and Genealogy of Great Britain: With Brief Biographical Notes, and a Topographical Index A feature not to be overlooked is the number of characteristic portraits of modern notabilities issued as cartoons by Vanity Fair, and not to be found in any other form. Many of these are out of print, and will become increasingly difficult to obtain. We solicit correspondence from collectors in respect to any portraits required and not mentioned in the following pages, fresh purchases being added to the stock daily.
