Its main aim was to promote French art and especially the official French ( Parisian) fine arts Salon. Each year they organised a lottery among their members ( in 1910 they numbered ca. 650). The Society acquired at the 1910 Salon only 21 works of art which were put up for a raffle among their members. This publication gives a complete list of its members and a detailed report of the result of the lotery. Printed in a resticted number of copies. Among the patrons we find C. Bouguereau , Raymond Poincaré , Baron de Rothschild, Victorien Sardou, Ed. Détaillé. (* the French National Library has only similar reports for the year 1885 -> 1895 ), it lacks all later publications). The year 1895, 1896, 1898, 1899, 1900, 1901, and 1903 are nowhere to be found ( Worldcat July 2019). If you order all the available 8 years ( 1888, 1898, 1900, 1901, 1902, 1907, 1909 and 1910) the total price would be 3000 Euro.‎
