Notes:
"In May 1860 J.E. Mayall took carte portraits of Queen Victoria, the Prince Consort and their children. These were published three months later in the Royal Album, which set the fashion for collecting cartes of celebrities as well as one's friends, and putting them in albums."--Gernsheim, H. A concise history of photography.
