The Postcard
There is no publisher's name on this
postcard.
The card has not been sent through the
post, but I have another postcard of Victoria Hall, possibly
published at the same time, that was sent through the post on June 3, 1913.
See below.

Question |
Fairley's
Bob Henderson wrote:
"I
wonder if it is just a coincidence
that the name Fairley appears on this
picture, or if they were connected to the
Fairley's
we all
new and loved."

Fairley's
I don't have a definite answer, but I
think it is probably more than coincidence.
Here are addresses listed in some
of the The Edinburgh & Leith Post Office Directories. (I
don't have directories for other years readily available.)
