The View
This view, in the early 1900s, looks from the Scott
Monument to the east, along Princes Street towards the monuments on
Calton
Hill in the distance. The large building with its
clock tower on the right hand side of this view is the
North British Hotel, at the junction of Princes Street and
North
Bridge. |
The Postcard
I have two copies of this postcard, one posted 1903, one
posted 1904.
These cards are in Valentine's Moonlight
Series. They were, in fact, daytime scenes, but
printed to appear as if they were taken by moonlight.
wih the moon and other lighting effects added after the photo
was taken..
