Title: Haslam Brothers
Post by: Pete51 on Saturday 21 May 22 18:46 BST (UK)
Hi guys, First of all, I would like to thank each and every one of you again for the fantastic restoration work that you all did with my great uncle Fred. My family is absolutely over the moon with all of them.

I now have another family photo that I'm hoping that some of you will be able to work that magic on again.

This photo is of my Great grandfather, George Henry Haslam, and his four brothers, Walter, Harrison, Reuben, and William Haslam. It would've been taken around 1908, probably after the death of their mother and the time some of them left the village they were born in ( Belmont, Lancashire). I do also think it could be also a wedding photo as the chap on the left is wearing a darker rose than the other four siblings.

Thank you

Pete.

One with a softer tone. Love the table, strategically place and must be very important to the young men.

Very nice Carol, thank you so much. I would imagine the table as a prop as it was taken in a studio. Although I could be wrong.

You are welcome Pete, if you intend to post other photos and have the original, could you scan at a resolution of 300dpi, this was only 72dpi and was quite pixelated which makes the job more difficult as it is hard on the eyes. The higher the resolution, the greater the detail  ;)

 Thanx mate :D I'm fascinated by the table. I keep trying to work out what that thing is, in the middle.

   Any chance of an high resolution scan of the front of the table to satisfy my curiosity ;D ;D

I haven't been able to find one the same but... I wonder if it's a dressing table where you crank on that 'handle', which moves a rod or rods, causing the top to lift up, revealing a mirror; the handle might also lock the rod in place.
