Queen Alexandra's Christmas Gift Book

Photographs From My Camera - 1908

To be sold for Charity
Published, London. 1908

---

A book containing a series of photographs taken by Queen Alexandra (1844 - 1925) using Kodaks. They are reproduced in printed form rather than as actual photographic prints. The album presents a set of delightful informal snaps of the Royal Family their relations and events. I have reproduced the captions as they are written in the book, some of the less interesting photographs have not been reproduced.

Queen Alexandra. The frontspiece: taken by W. & D. Downey, 61 Ebury Street, London S.W. A large and finely printed image with a printed signature beneath. (image 20.5 x 16.5 cm)
