--ADD BOLD to names in text, and add names and meeting particulars to this bib.
--No volume #s, only issue #s.
--This year of the journal is in TWO volumes, and the PAGE NUMBERS START OVER.
--Articles transcribed directly from the original journals at the V&A Art Library, although sometimes photographs have been made. When such is the case, the first words of each article will be transcribed in order to insure photos match bib. refs.
--There is an index – under “Photography”, technical subjects not copied, nor were very minor announcements if they were made elsewhere.
--There are ads in each issue; these were very randomly checked as time permitted, but should be gone through thoroughly. Transcriptions were made of ads as they were found – they may, or may not have been published at other times.
