"The NEW YORK PHOTOGRAVURE CO., at 137 West 23d Street, makes perfect pictures for artistic, scientific and commercial purposes, by special, inimitable photogravure, photogelatine, and half-tone block processes. It has a gallery fitted to produce negatives of all sizes up to 24 × 30, by the best orthochromatic methods. From this department to the packing room, there is not a phase of any work, however trivial apparently, not carefully attended with the most zealous supervision."

Photographs in Colors
"Mr. Edwards spoke from the small stage at the end of the exhibition hall, and after an interesting résumé of the many 'processes' by which pictures and illustrations are now made with the aid of photography, the most important of which he explained in lucid and not too technical phraseology, he approached the most interesting part of his discourse, the modern method of three-color printing, which has, under the New York Photogravure Company, reached so high a state of perfection and resulted in such surprisingly attractive results."
From the Mail and Express, New York
"SUN AND SHADE reproduces, not only the most notable paintings and portraits, but the best work of amateur and professional photographers. If it gave nothing but the latter work, it would be deserving of the most liberal patronage that it receives; but it is an admirable record of the greatest paintings at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, of living American players, of portraits of celebrated Americans, of great American painters, with reproductions of their work, and it is a monument of the New York Photogravure Co., which is a monument of artistic New York."
