This might start a debate but I don't think they are
working class lads.
This looks like a posed photo of 3 men in working class
clothes.
They look well scrubbed & their shoes look in a better
condition than one would expect.
Also I think 1870's.
Nice photo all the same.
I bought it off Ebay and for some reason it was in Germany, not sure how it ended up there. Thanks for your input, they do look rather well presented, but are also wearing clogs?
1870s wow. Quite an early one then.
