John C Bambrick

 

Studios

John C Bambrick moved his studio four times between starting his  business at the popular site of 1 Hanover Street at the junction with Princes Street, in 1914 and finishing about half a mile to the West at Shandwick Place twenty years later.

I have post cards from Bambrick.  Does anybody know who now owns the copyright?

Question

I have post cards from John C Bambrick.  Does anybody know who now owns the copyright on his photos?

Answer

Thank you to Jean Bambrick who replied.

"I believe that John C Bambrick was a brother of my late husband's father, William Bambrick, who lived at Trinity Crescent, Edinburgh.

The family used to speak about uncle Johnnie who took lots of family pictures, weddings etc, as well as views.

I don't know who the copyright belongs to.

I would love to hear more."

If you know anything more about John C Bambrick, please e-mail me, then I'll pass on the details to Jean Bambrick.

Thank you.
