[2] [Usually found with logo of E.S.] [Not the same as "Ecstacy Views" series made in Brooklyn, NY.] Produced 11 known series of 12 views each, on RMs, each showing 1 to 3 women in sequences such as strip-tease, dancing, at beach (made in studio, with beach backdrop), playing cards, etc. Fairly elaborate studio sets; costumes range from modest to full frontal nudity; views in each series numbered, on one set (decorous dancing) additional credit to "Ecstacy Series, Los Angeles, Cal." is printed across end of mt.; 4 known sets have set #s, 801, 802, 806, 810. All bear "CR 1924 by E.S. Co."; somewhat surprisingly they actually were CR, & several samples are in Lib. of Cong. No clues as to photographers. While the risque series were likely their main stock, they also produced set of 15 views CR 26 of the Al G. Barnes circus in Los Angeles, showing workers, performers, animals, etc.
