Studio
His
premises at 16 Pitt Street were described as:
“Large
with two elegant reception rooms, a studio, printing and other rooms. The studio
is heated by hot water apparatus and measures thirty-six feet by twenty-five
feet.”
[ST]
WK Munro's addresses in the Edinburgh trade directories were:
1868-1874 37 North Pitt Street
1875-1884 16 North Pitt Street
1885-1907 58 Pitt Street
1885-1907 16 Pitt Street
NOTES:
1. There was some renumbering of Pitt Street, so WK Munro probably
did not move studio as often as the table above suggests.
2. The Edinburgh Trade Directories recorded WK Munro as
being based at only 16 Pitt Street from 1887 onwards, but his cartes de visite
appear to have continued to use the address, 58 Pitt Street, for many years (possibly until
1907) rather than 16 Pitt Street.
3. The following may be helpful in estimating the approximate
dates of WK Munro's cartes de visite. These were numbered consecutively.
I have seen cartes numbered up to about 78,500.
No 55,000 appears to have
been reached around 1885.
