I've an old Lazarus III that belonged to my teacher of long ago. I know it predates my Lazarus II of 1955 by quite a few years. It's a Carl Fischer/S. Bellison. The paper is extremely brown and brittle. There is no code # in the lower left hand of the cover. Cost was $2.25 Is it pre WWII....?

A great teacher gives you answers to questions
you don't even know you should ask.

Maybe start with coffee or something simple like buying it a drink...


(I couldn't resist, but sorry I can't offer anything of value on the date of the book)

Based on this, it seems as though Sam Bellison he started a studio in 1920 and so I think we can at least limit the range of this publication to between 1920 and probably his retirement in 1948. Hopefully that helps.

Sounds like the Lazarus book I studied out of in 1957-58 while a student of Benny Ehr here in Madison, WI. All his students--at that time, 80 per week--used them (at least, the "ones" that practiced :>) BTW, regarding "costs"--at that time, I think the book cost more than his half-hour lessons, about $2.98.
