The Victorian Photograph Album - Carte-de-visite

From The Collections of Roger Vaughan

This leather bound CDV album is almost complete with nearly all its photos, the spine has been damaged.
The photos are presented in the order preserved in the album. From the dates and locations this album seems to have been bought at William Lacey's studio, 20 Blackfriars Road, London in 1889 - when the family went in to have their portrait taken.

View1 (cover)--- View2 (page)
Photos shown at about twice the natural size
Use of brackets: (transcribed notes) [my notes]
Front and the back views are available.
All addresses are in the UK unless stated.



This family lived in the City of London.
