Just purchased online so not yet in my hands! . All I can find at the moment: The HCL Series is probably by William England as an online mention said that a few cards were like mine and of the International Exhibition of 1872. The card on the righthand side image margin has 709 The Crystal Palace
On the left of the card is the copyright etc with The HCL series
"Heliotype Company Limited.
Very possibly by William England and from The International Exhibition of 1872"
WorldCat tells me that the Heliotype Company Limited were at 219 Regent Street, London
Library of Congress has this :
http://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/2004676381/ which would seem to appear William England was the creator.
Can anyone else assist please?
