Title: Date Please
Post by: somersethouse on Monday 27 May 13 09:31 BST (UK)
Hi All, is anyone able to give me an estimate on the date that this photo might have been taken (and opinions on how old the lady might be?). This scan was sent to me by my aunt and I don't have access to the back as it has been glued into an album. I just wondered if the style of photo might narrow down the date range at all? Thanks in advance!

I think the date will be tricky, but the lady is late twenties, I would say - hope this helps!  :)

That does help - thank you. The lady in question was born in the late 1880s so I think it seems reasonable to assume that the photo was taken around about 1915. I appreciate your help!
