Thank you to
Alastair White for allowing me to reproduce some postcards from
the company
J B
White of Dundee. This company was founded by Alastair's
grandfather.
Alastair worked for J B White, then later founded 'Whiteholme
of Dundee', another company that published postcards.
Cards Featuring Maps
The backs of some of the 'Whiteholme of Dundee'
postcards featuring maps that I've added to the EdinPhoto web
site include an acknowledgement to Douglas B Young for the artwork
on the card.
I've not been able to trace Douglas. If you know how to
contact him, please email me to let me know, so that I can ensure
that he is happy for me to have included these card on the
EdinPhoto web site. Thank you.
NOTE: Alastair White, former owner of the Whiteholme
of Dundee'
business tells me that:
- Duggie (Douglas) Young, lived in Newport, Fife
when he created the map cards
- Duggie was a friend of Alastair's son.
However, Duggie and Alastair's son have now lost contact with each
other.
