Sandy, interesting photo's, the 1st a real snapshot in times, would that be the 1940's by any chance, just going by the gentlemans clothing and cars in the background, I prefer a family photo to have cles as to the era in which it was taken

I think the photo was taken around 1936-37, based on the fact that my uncle was born in 1932. He looks 4 or 5 in the pic, I would say. My grandfather certainly looks dressed in late 1930's style, although my grandmother's choice of footwear leaves me scratching my head!

I haven't any other information on these two photos, but thought they were pretty cool

description:

"These four children had their photograph taken during their school holidays at their home North Berwick. The family were the children of a general practitioner; the elder boys have been dressed in matching costumes and the younger boy and girl wear sailor suits, popular holiday attire at that period.

This image was printed from a 1/2 plate glass negative. The photograph shows four children posed against a wall. Left, two boys wear kilts with white collars and black bow-ties over their jackets; one has an adult sized golf club. Right, a girl and boy in skirted sailor suits, each with a wood spade.

This photograph is part of a family collection made from the 1880s-1900s. Dr Richardson settled at North Berwick where he established a medical practice. He photographed family members, trips and events and, when his son founded North Berwick Museum, the collection was deposited there. It now provides glimpses of upper middle class life of the period."
