Title: The Lindsay Scrapbook Digital Album

URL: http://cartoons.osu.edu/digital_albums/lindsayscrapbook/

Description: This websites contains the Lindsay scrapbook (the name D. Lindsay is written on the front flyleaf) which is comprised of fifty-two full color chromolithographs-- caricatures of London celebrities, politicians, and royalty-- that were all executed by the well-known French artist “Faustin” (Faustin Betbeder) and appeared in the London Figaro. Most of these caricatures measure 6 inches x 2 ¾ inches. They were printed separately from the magazine and tipped into the issue, and then clipped out and pasted into this scrapbook. The earliest caricature is dated October 22, 1873, and the last one, December 23, 1874. Mixed in are other series that ran in Figaro, including Figaro Photographs of the Day. Included at the end are some 19th century family photos, invitations, cards, and engravings. NOTE: This archived site contains external links beyond the scope of this crawl.
