Enlargements. Cameras and supplies. "Camera-making. Work for amateurs. Studios for postcards. Enlargements and retouching" (Monod, 1902). Florent Cobut (° Anderlues, 15.11.1840) seems to have been at the helm of this business. His son Rodolphe (see that name) resided at this address for an undetermined length of time until 17.12.1904. This was an ambitious initiative. "Cobut, registered trademark. Illustrated catalogue of 300 novelties. Free courses begin on 15 June" (Le Soir, 1.6.1902). "Inauguration of electric factory for producing photographic enlargements in platinum and postcards in bromide" (13.10.1902).
