From Ms. Lallier, responding to our inquiry: "I made several of them for clients but I cannot recall for whom I made this one. Each album is unique. It is never the same design." A wonderful gift opportunity - something unique and very special. This fine album has many potential uses, including a wedding album, a guest album or even a very special 'scrap-album' akin to those so frequently used in the glorious days of the nineteenth century. .
