This directory lists the judges and lawyers active at the Mixed Tribunals (Tribunaux Mixes), which were established in Egypt in 1875 in order to address legal issues involving foreign nationals living in Egypt. This directory is of interest because it provides information about the composition of the courts, the time when any given individual joined the courts, and about the geographic spread of lawyers practicing in Egypt. The Library also holds related material, notably the Journal published by the courts (Journal des tribunaux mixtes), and a selection of original court records.\r\n\r\nThe publication date is unclear; the accession date in the directory is May 1934.\r\n

The important religious monuments of the city, Islamic and Christian, were differentiated both by color (red for mosques, and blue for churches and synagogues) and notation (numbers for the mosques, and letters for churches and synagogues).
