Description
The series contains black and white photographs and negatives showing non-aerial views in and around London.
There are 150 original negatives taken between about 1894 and 1910. The identity of the photographer, who was probably a news photographer, is unknown. Many of the negatives are in poor condition but many of them were copied in the 1960s by a chemist named Mills. These copy negatives and photographs are present in the collection and because they were copied before degradation, they often provide a clearer image.
The images show street scenes, crowds, jubilee celebration, sports events (including W G Grace leading a cricket team and cycle racing), shipbuilding, the Sydenham Crystal Palace, and seaside and beach scenes.
A handlist is available.
