Information and discussion on all aspects of British photographic history
I'm trying to get some biographical material on Harold Burdekin and John Morrison who jointly published a book on night photography of London circa 1930 and on the photography of Alfred Howarth Blake, founder of The Society of Night Photographers of England and London Correspondent of American Photographer, member of the Linked Ring, nickname "Cockney" active around the turn of the 20th century. Any help, pointers etc., will be appreciated.

Dear Donald,
We have in the library of the Société Jersiaise, St Helier, Jersey a porfolio of photographs of the island of Sark titled The Garden of Cymodoce (The Island of Sark) after Swinburne, believed to be by Alfred Howarth Blake, dated February 1900. This collection only recently came to light. If you would like further information please feel free to contact me: gareth.syvret@societe-jersiaise.org
