Macnabb Collection (Col James Henry Erskine Reid): Album of snapshot views of the British Isles, India and Japan. Photographer(s): Unknown
- Scope & Content:
-
Beige cloth-bound sketch measuring 235 x 301 mm, with snapshot prints pasted down with corner hinges. A small batch of prints and other ephemera are inserted loose at the back of the album. Some prints have brief handwritten captions and dates, the majority, however, are uncaptioned. The album is mainly composed of family snapshots and views of no great quality, taken at various locations in the British Isles (the majority), India and Japan (prints 73-80). Most of the prints date from the early 1900s, with a small batch of loose prints from the 1930s. The one outstanding image in the album is a professional photograph of a hot air balloon being inflated on the shore of the lake at Naini Tal, c.1900.
