"This journal, established for the advancement of the Photographic Art, is the organ of all leading British and Foreign Photographic Societies. Its contributors embrace the names of the most eminent writers on the Art-Science of Photography. It contains full reports of the meetings of all photographic societies; its columns are replete with interesting details both for the amateur and professional" (Mitchell's, 1900). 

"The Liverpool Photographic Society, in putting forth a Journal of their own, rest their claims to public support upon the widely extending interest in the several branches of Photographic art, the daily progress that is being made by the practical members of their own Society, and other Photographers elsewhere” (Address 1:1).

Motto: "The Oldest Photography Journal in the World"
