Add to basketOblong 8vo. View book containing 12 real photographic plates (albumen types) pasted onto thick card and professionally and neatly titled by hand. Original green cloth, with gilt title on the upper board, within a blind stamped frame. A fine example with the photos free from fading, slight loss of surface from one image on to the… facing image, but a very good example. A most interesting collection of views which are mostly unsigned. Some are probably the work of Adams, the pioneering Dover photographer and some are marked 'Frith's series'. With the advent of photography the local publishers were quick to supply albums and binders where the customer could choose from the images in stock and compile their own collections as souvenirs. This is an early example. The Views are:- 1. Dover (view of the sea front looking east, with numerous boats drawn up above high water mark). 2. Dover (looking east from Admiralty Pier to the Harbour entrance). 3. The Esplanade ( looking west). 4. The Esplanade (looking east) 5. The Harbour (Wellington Dock with four paddle steamers and sailing ships). 6. Dover (The Crimea memorial etc). 7. Castle Street (with horse-drawn carts etc). 8. South Foreland (east cliffs). 9. Shakespeare Cliff (with old wooden railway viaduct) 10. Lord Warden Hotel ( from Admiralty Pier) 11. Dover Castle. !2. The Pharos.
