hi all
this is a random question really, I have a photo of my Nan working in a Milliners in about 1920 give or take 5 years. I cant see any clues as to the name of the firm she worked for in the photo but would like to know more.
Is there anyone around who would possible know or could point me in the right direction in finding out what Millinery establishments that wouldve been around in the 1920's in the Camberwell area. And or someone who maybe able to look at the photo and see something Ive missed maybe.
Any help would be wonderful
thanks and happy hunting
Maz
