Description

Portrait photo of the GWR Orchestra at Swindon, Wiltshire, England, 1922. From a postcard deposited at Swindon Record Office and scanned and uploaded by them to Flickr. The photographer was Fred C. Palmer of Tower Studio, Herne Bay, Kent ca.1905-1916, and of 6 Cromwell Street, Swindon ca.1920-1936. He is believed to have died 1936-1939.

Border

The remaining border of this image is important for researchers of this photographer. Some photographers trimmed their images more than others. He took his own photos, developed them in-house onto photographic paper and trimmed them himself. It is worth adding that during hand-developing the border is actively masked with equipment which crops the picture and creates a white frame on the paper. This cropping and framing is part of the design and is one of the reasons why the quality of Palmer's work is so interesting, and why there is an article and category for him on English Wiki. Researchers need to see exactly where the edge of the composition is and where the white frame starts. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
