  Dear James,

  I have currently only a very brief note on  Simpson: 

  Simpson, Rev. W.

  Amateur. Active in Agra circa 1869. Photographed buildings near Muttra & Agra. His work was published in ‘Illustrations of Buildings near Muttra and Agra’,  published by the India Museum in 1873.

  (Ref: Biographical index published in ‘From Bombay to Shanghai’ . Stichtung Fragment Foto, Amsterdam, 1995.)

  Unfortunately I don't have any info at all, on anyone called Mullens; so any light you can throw on either his or Simpson's photographic endeavours in India would be much appreciated. Likewise, if I find out any more info, I'll pass it on.

  Best Wishes, Hugh Rayner.

  Hello James! Very nice to meet you! I do not have connections in Hungary, but would love to collaborate there!

  Today I bought a carte-de-visite by William Friese Greene: the image itself is relatively uninspiring, but I valued the physical link to one of cinematography's great pioneers. Another purchase today was an old album of photographs from the early 1900s, including clergy portraits, Oxford events and several very fine photographs of boating and rural scenes.
