I am very very suspicious about these being of the same person. But your opinions please.
The other thread I just posted
The dark photo of the older man is 'suss' I think.
Percy Crees died in 1905 aged 53. I think this older man is older than that - and why send someone a photo 7 years after his death?? Seems to have been taken in Bournemouth. Percy lived in Australia and died in Victoria.

Hi Wiggy....I don't think they are the same person, the ears are different and so is the shape of the eyebrows, the nose also is a different shape.

I agree with Carol, I don't think they are the same man.

Thanks folks - I don't think so either - the photo was given to me with a query.

Some years ago when the restores were done for this bloke, Gadget thought he had 'mad looking eyes'!
I didn't know him (surprisingly as he died in 1905 ;)) but I don't think the new photo has 'mad eyes'! ;D ;D

The older man has kind, gentle eyes :)

I think so too! :D

I would say no also because of gravity :P
