Printed on the back of this real photographic postcard is the name of the photographic studio that produced it: ‘Leo. Legge & Co., 12 Grainger Street, Newcastle-on-Tyne.’. Two small children gaze out at the viewer, the baby supported by his mother, and the little girl resting her arm on a table. Their soldier–father sits behind them; the details of his shoulder titles are indistinct. || A real photographic postcard || || A photograph of a British soldier and his family. || Photograph

The printed details on the back of this photographic postcard showing a boy dressed as a British soldier give the name of the photographer who produced it: ‘J. Bambridge, Photographer, 197, High St., Gateshead.’. Gateshead was in County Durham at the time of the First World War, which means that the boy’s cap badge is almost certainly that of the Durham Light Infantry. || A photograph showing a boy dressed as a British soldier || || A photograph of a Gateshead boy dressed as a soldier || Photograph || Deutsch
