Here
are the front and back of one of William Fairbairn's cartes de visite.
The
address is 10 Crown Street, Leith - the address given for
Fairbairn's studio, 1891-93. This is the only address that I have seen on
Fairbairn's cartes de visite
The back of the carte de visite shows
where the thin sheet of tissue used to be attached. These sheets were
folded over the front of cartes de visite to protect the image, but in almost
all cases they are now no longer attached.
