Respectfully calls the attention of the people of Auckland to the fact that he is now furnishing highly-enameled Photographs at reasonab'c prices, at his studio. Queen-street, Auckland. This process was first discovered by Mr Hem, a popular photographur in Boston. Mass.. U.S.A., and has b-en practised by him since 1861. AU though this method of beautifying photographs is attended with much careful manipulation, the result is very satisfactory and pleasing as well as beneficial, inasmuch as it preserves the picture from fading and spotting by exposure to air. He guarantees these photographs, when enamelled, to remain perfectly brilliant for fifty years, as time and climate has no damaging efiect on them. Please call and inspect onr work. r A U N D R Y.
