Summary/Abstract: The text introduces the name of Bogdana Kasarova, the manager of the Court Bookstore Iv. B. Kasarov, and her little-known role as a publisher of lithographic and photographic postcards in Sofia (during the period 1898 – 1905). The focus is on her short-lived but significant project – the publication of postcards, as well as on the profile of women publishers of postcards who entered a traditionally male profession. The postcards by Bogdana Kasarova reflect the photographic image of the modern Bulgarian capital and are distinguished by elegant framing, embossed/relief printing, and quality typography.
