Found 2

Here's another photo found in the Aberdeen area this time courtesy of my sister.

Thought it would be good to share! Judging by the clothes I'd say it's 90's? (though I don't want to insult any one's taste in attire). Definitely family, visible resemblances. Ooh it's fun to speculate.




Contact me: jenny@jenny-hood.com if you want to claim it! Found- Chatten Place, Aberdeen within the last 3 weeks. Appears to have been run over by a car and suffered some surface damage, handwritten no. 4 on the back, size 5 x 4".

I found these images in a 2nd hand book, "Houses of Europe" (1960s) I got from Oxfam in Aberdeen recently. I was quite intruiged and would really love to know the story behind them. Not sure why they were stashed inside this book other than to keep them flat. They are definitely hand printed as there are two copies of the image of the boy, one slightly more overexposed.

Also, I'm not sure if the drawing was copied from a book. I can't quite place the time period either, the woman's clothes seem to be 20's style, but I'm not extremely familiar with historical fashion trends, more research is required!
