The
title of the picture above is 'The Daylight Fireworks.
I have
not seen the back of this postcard so do not know who the photographer or
publisher was.
Whoever
it was, the photographer appears to have created this postcard from many
images - several decades before it became possible to create rather more
subtle results digitally.
This
card was sent to Canada in 1911.
It
would have been sold during the Exhibition, which was held at
Kelvingrove Park, Glasgow from May 3 until November 4, 1911.
The exhibition attracted 9.4m visitors. |
