Durham/Northumberland family Dating old (I think) cabinet card.
« on: Saturday 22 May 21 14:46 BST (UK) »
Hello,

I could do with some help dating this old cabinet card? we have in the family photo collection to see if it can shine some light on the person in it.

It is amongst the collection of a Durham/Northumberland family but was taken in Preston by photographer George Read (not sure what the links are to Preston).

It is much smaller than the rest we have, measures 6 x 10 cm. I have attached photos of the front and back.

Much appreciated!

The cardstock design is mid-late 1880's.
so 1885-90ish.

Thank you both, really appreciated.

I'm still not quite sure what uniform he is wearing so if anyone could help with that also it would be great :)

Oh I never noticed that. It does look like a number. Do you know if that could help identify the person?
