Studios
in Leith
William
Fairbairn had a photographic business at 10 and 15 Crown Street, Leith.
He named one or both of these premises Crown
Studio, and advertised:
|
“Tram cars pass the door”
|
The
back of this cartes de visite featured a sketch of an artist’s
brushes and palate surrounded by flowers. On
the palate was a picture of fir tree and a photographer with black cloth and
camera on tripod.
William
Fairbairn
later moved to 70 +72 Leith and took over the premises previously occupied by
Hugh McKay’s Reay Temperance Hotel &
Restaurant.
One
address that I have not found in any of the trade directories is 116
Fountain Bridge. However, I have a pair of stereo prints by
Fairbairn, with the address:
-
72 Leith Walk and 116 Fountain Bridge.
