Dating? COMPLETE
« on: Friday 02 September 11 00:40 BST (UK) »
Hi guys! I was wondering if anyone could date this?

I know this photo was taken in the 1900s, my guess would be 1930s?

Just trying to get a date to see how old my great grandparents would be.

I know this is a bad scan, but I hope to get the original, so I can scan at a high dpi and hopefully get it restored.

Thanks pckl :D

Based on the hairstyle and the dress of your greatgrandmother I'd agree fully with 1930's

I'd agree. 1930s, maybe 1940s. If it helps, I'd guess that both are in their fifties, respectively.
