Stamped on the back of this real photographic postcard is a number – ‘96500’ – and the name and address of the photographic studio that produced it: ‘CAMPBELL GRAY, PHOTO, 88 EDGEWARE ROAD, W London’. Posing solemnly with their parents, the two army children in the photograph appear to be teenagers. Their soldier–father’s uniform looks well worn; it is not possible to make out the details of his circular cap badge. || A real photographic postcard. || || Photograph || A photograph of a British soldier's family photographed in west London.
