Cartes de Visite by date |
||||||
|
The style of cartes de visite changed gradually over the second half of the nineteenth century. Early examples were on thin white card with square corners and a simple name and address printed on the back. Later examples were on thicker card with rounded corners. Some had elaborate printing and illustrations, often on coloured card. |

Comments The studio address of the previous photo is 60 Princes Street. This was Howie's studio 1864-67. However, the style looks more typical of mid-1870s to 1880s, so Howie appears to have been using 60 Prince St on his cdv's when his studio address was 60b Princes Street, 1868-89 |
