Barbara -- negative info only from the LC catalog. There are 59  
entries for Sarony, but they all are for graphics except one letter.   
Many were famous people: Mrs. Fiske, Sarah Bernhardt, Oscar Wilde,  
Walt Whitman, for example.  Many of his pictures can be seen online,  
should you wish to see them at http://catalog.loc.gov/

Choose Basic Search, and select author/creator, then put sarony  
napoleon (no punctuation) in the search box and select Search.   
Select any desired entry that says Electronic Resource Available and  
click on it, then from the resulting bibliographic description click  
on the Lot number and you should get it.  -- Suzy Platt
