Street photo's 1915-1925
« on: Saturday 16 February 13 08:42 GMT (UK) »
Hi
Would love some help on where to look for Aberdeen street photo's from 1915-25.
I'm hoping to find photo's of Loch St, George St & Skene Sq.  According to 1915 Aberdeen Valuation Rolls my great grandfather had a workshop & 2 shops on these streets.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

I find libraries are a great source for old photographs / books with historical photographs.
One link you could have a look through here.... http://www.silvercityvault.org.uk/index.php?a=ShowAll&t=1&WINID=1361004766794
