Products:
The Detroit Publishing Company’s business relied on the creative use and re-use of images and finding new markets for them.  The same image might appear in a souvenir view book, in promotional literature, as a postcard or lantern slide or as a print “suitable for framing.”  These products were then promoted to the travel industry, educators, librarians, and the armchair traveler.
