Picked this up several years ago and forgot all about it until running across it tonight.
It is a colllectipn of portraot examples from a myriad of photographers.
A great work if you can dig up a copy.
It os from 1947.

If you only want one for examination purposes, you might also find one in a library
http://olc1.ohiolink.edu/search/t?SEARCH=professional+portrait+lightings
In Ohio we have a good inter-library loan system, and 4 of the 5 copies out there are available.

also, Biblio has some fs:
