Dear Colleagues
I should like to know what holdings there are in British public collections. I am aware of the V&A holdings but not of others. Many thanks - Mark Haworth-Booth
You need to be a member of British Photographic History to add comments!
Thank you very much, Marcel! It's really the public collections in the UK I am focusing on but it is useful to have the other references too.
The Silvy book is at the design stage and is looking very handsome, thank you. All best, Mark

Presumably you will have already seen the Robertson images at the National Army Museum?

We're not a public collection but for reference we have a dozen prints by Robertson - although they are very faded.
Best wishes, Sarah
