Book excerpt: Excerpt from Photograms of the Year 1920: The Annual Review of the World's Pictorial Photographic Work In the last volume of Photograms of the Year the prediction was ventured that the year then to come would be a record one for photography generally - that a boom in camera work was starting after the restrictions of the war period. This prediction appears to have been well fulfilled. Whilst, during the war, the professional portrait photographer scored to a great extent by the very nature of his output, and amateur work was restricted, the removal of those restrictions, and the return to civil life of so many thousands of amateur photographers who had been in the army, has been productive of a notable revival of enthusiasm in the art in all directions. The boom has continued unabated throughout the past year, and the production of pictorial photographs has never been greater than at the present time. Under the circumstances, the chief difficulty in the preparation of this Annual, handicapped by the enhanced cost of production, has been, of necessity, to bring the number of contributions representative of modern pictorial photography within the limits of the space available. The task has not been an easy one, and to the authors of the many hundreds of pictures that have been sent for the purpose, but whose work it has not been possible to include, our thanks are just as sincere for their proffered assistance and evidences of goodwill as to those whose pictures have been selected for reproduction.
