Can anyone date these portraits please?
« on: Friday 26 September 08 08:28 BST (UK) »
I would love it if someone could date these portraits so that I can attempt to identify who they could be.  I have it narrowed down I think but need a date to be sure.  Thanks.

Just off the top of my head,  because they are similar to my paternal grandparents' phtograph,  I would say 1905 - 1910.  Unfortunately I might be way out!  Anyway good luck!

Hi Karen,
I'll leave the dating to those who do it best ;D...Here's a clean up from me...They would have been better posted separately and scanned at 300 dpi.
