500 Amateur Photos Of Tottenham London c1890s – Trams Shops People – Social History

£3,500.00

This is a collection of 500 amateur photographs dating from 1891 to 1904 taken in and around the Tottenham area of London. They are mounted onto both sides of the pages of two disbound albums.

The photographer has taken the time to annotate most of the photos and has concentrated on the shops and buildings of the area and also on the transportation system, including the tram network. There are a number of photos of the surrounding countryside and churches as well. There are also some large photos documenting a fire at G L Wilson & Co.

The albums are disbound and in poor condition and a number of the photos are either loose or missing. Many of the photos have faded but the detail should be strong enough to scan and restore for publication.
