Could I have a date, please, for this Manx lady?
« on: Saturday 13 July 13 22:13 BST (UK) »
This is my great-grandmother, from the Isle of Man, born 1849.  She looks about 20-30 as far as I can tell, but when was this taken, is the style of dress a clue? Any ideas please, experts?
Thanks,

Yes 1870s but to narrow it down we need to see all of it uncropped including the outer corners please, and also the design on the back.

Cheers,

Thanks for the replies - I don't have the original to show the full picture & reverse. But 1870s is fine!
Thanks again.
