Title: Photographers - Drummond Shiels, Edinburgh
Post by: Daffodilly on Sunday 09 April 06 09:40 BST (UK)

I'm sorry, I am not sure if this is the right place for this query, if not I would love someone to move it to where it should be.

I have an obituary from 1923 with a photo that Iwould love to see a better copy of.  It is taken by Drummond Shiels of Edinburgh.  Does anyone know if this is possible in any way?

I have a photocopy of the obit which was made in the early 80s when they were not so good as they are now and it was from a raggedy newspaper cutting.  I am wondering if the photos from this studio are still around.

Thank you.

Thank you, I have reposted there.  I didn't realise that board was there, there are so many, I am still learning my way around.  It is a fascinating site.
