Look on the Back of Old Photos - posted September 1, 2003 by April Ashton

Many old family photos were taken by professionals and they usually advertised their business with a stamp on the back of the prints. Here is a good example from Paul's family photo album. And on the back is some valuable information that would otherwise have been lost for ever:

Paul's mother, brother and father taken around 1937 on a pier. Obviously a British summer holiday! But where?
Turn the photo over and the rhyme says it all - Llandudno, North Wales!

As part of FocalPlane's photo restoration service, we always look for these details and will be pleased to scan them for posterity.
