I
have found cartes de visite by W Archibald, 225 Canongate, but no
reference to him in any of the trade directories, so do not know
when he operated or whether or not he was part of the partnership below.

Partnerships
Archibald & Fowler
were in business
from 1892 until 1907 (except for the period 1897 to 1900 when the company
became Archibald, Fowler & Ferrier Ltd.). The partnership
was described in the trade directories
as:
Photo
engravers,
designers, litho-draughtsmen and electrotypers,
except for the year 1893, when they were described as
Photographers.
They produced work for calendars Christmas Cards and
book illustrations. They had attractively illustrated adverts in the
trade directories of the 1890s.

Here is a photograph of an excursion to Linlithgow
by employees of
W Archibald. The photographer is not named. The photograph is
8ins. x 6ins. and is mounted
on card 12ins. x 10ins.

I don't know
whether or not this is the same W Archibald as above, but I have included
the photo on this site, nevertheless, as an interesting piece of late 19th
century social history.
Linlithgow is in West Lothian, about 20
miles west of Edinburgh.
