QUESTION 2. 
The purpose of these questions is to compare the production expenditures for 
one historical work in various countries. As reliable approximate values as 
possible of the expenses expected will be appreciated from the countries 
which might carry out the task. 
The fact may be considered here that the historical work is based on about 
1500 pages of historical and thematic national reports in one of the I.S.P. 
official languages plus illustrations and half-tone pictures. The editor-in- 
chief should not be merely an outstanding photogrammetrist, but he ought to 
be personally involved in this work as well as able to perform it, He should 
recruit his assistant personnel by himself. Moreover, he ought to be able 
to envisage the approximate expenditures for the editorial activities compe 
leted with a printing manuscript in one official language. 
2,13 The manuscript on the HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAMMETRY should comprise about 
500 text pages, 2000 strokes each and about 200 to 300 figures. This 
corresponds to 272 printing pages of 3772 strokes each and about 150 
to 200 picture pages, /both drawings and photos/, size B 5 /167 x 240 
mm/, Please give an estimate of the price for | copy in different edi- x 
tion cases, e | 
2.14 For producing the whole Volume I, the complete NATIONAL REPORTS ON 
HISTORY shall be sent on uncut printing sheets to the printing office 
for binding. 
2,15 The THEMATIC NATIONAL REPORTS e.g. size A 4 /210 x 295 mm/, shall also 
be sent to the centre on uncut printing sheets for further assortments 
in cards. 
2.2 In the case of financing from own funds, the I.S.P. running naturally 
risks too, the price of both volumes might be considerably lower than 
that one in the case of financing them by a publishing house, 
Concrete detailed suggestions, regarding this questions, submitted by the 
countries affected will be highly appreciated.
