Description (What the record is about)
-
Red half-leather photograph album measuring 245x302mm, in poor condition, spine missing, front board and several pages detached. The album is only half-full and contains family and social snapshots (the majority of very indifferent quality) taken in Scotland. There is a pencilled caption for each page, identifying location and date. The album presumably belonged to F.M. Bailey's parents, since prints 1-25 were taken when he was in Tibet. Prints 26-44, which are of better quality, printed on different paper and made while Bailey was at home on leave, may well be his work. Bailey himself features in a number of these prints. The photographs were taken at the following places: Pogbie, Newtown Stewart, Smeaton, Houston, North Berwick (Lord Roberts and Mr Balfour playing golf in 1907), Nethermuir, Cobairdy, Capheaton.
