During 1880 and 1881 Paul Frénzeny while living in NY primarily relied on drawings from his trip through the American West and back through Central America for supporting himself. There were 7 Harper's publications in these years. These are all located
in section 3 organized by topic. In 1882 and 1883 he continued publishing trip pictures, 3 of them, but also did local assignments for Harper's. |

1884 thru the Summer of 1886 is a mystery period Harper's doesn't seem to have anything. It is unknown what Paul was doing during this time. Undoubtedly traveling and in part to Texas, given that the next two Harper's pictures published are from there. |

This book is even smaller than The Humor of France, although the printing for illustrations is screened images, clearly improvments have been made in the printing process. But the smaller format makes recovery of the images all that harder. It seems there are only four Frénzeny illustrations in the book. Note: The title page of the book does not accent the first 'e' in Frénzeny, Which is why it doesn't appear above. — ed. |
