Two local families that came into the studio way back in
the 1890's.Apart from the date I really do not know a thing about these old
studio portraits.If anyone recognizes anyone in the photographs please get
in touch.Most Victorian portraits from the time always had the artistic backcloth
which could range from oriental scene to even a railway carriage of all things.Why
anybody would want to pretend to be in a railway carriage for a photograph
is beyond me.
