Queen & Co., Philadelphia. 19 QUEEN & ACHROMATIC j) ECOGNIZING that each kind of lens has its own peculiar ex-«L\ cellencies, we have so chosen the lenses of each class as toallow them to do just what they can do best. Thus our singleachromatics are so constructed as to give pictures of moderate anglewith great sharpness and brilliancy, and are excellent for the purposeof reproducing scenes of still life, such as landscapes.
