The images are undated. Almost all are fom the 1950s. But there are a few older images from the family photograph album. They date back to the early 20th century.
There are a few older images from the family photograph album. They date back to the early 20th century. Presumably these show the parents of the children depicted in the 1950s. Lacking further information we cannot be sure. We have only a few of the older images, including some that look like the 1900s.
We believe that the photographs were all taken at the same time during the early 1950s. One photograph includes a family car so we should be be able to date the image (figure 1). Hopefully one of our HBC readers will be able to date the car. We know the photographs were taken at the same time because the children were all dressed the same. Of course the model of the car will not provide us a definitive date that the photograph was taken. It does, however, provide parameters such as the earliest possible time the photograph could have been taken. The car looks to us to be a 1948-50 model, because the windscreen (front window) is flat and divided into two pannels. A French reader tells us that it is a Vedette from 1948-52
