Hats



A photograph sent as a postcard in 1908. Posted to: Miss Hamilton, c/o Knox & Stewart, Drapers, High Street, East Linton, Prestonkirk.  The photograph was produced by Huber, 120 Princes St, Edinburgh and Aberdour.

The text reads:
Dear M.
Got home safe M met me at the Station and the rain came down in buckets, we lost Miss Smith at the station in the crowd.  Say goodbye to Miss Charpers for me please.  Sorry I didn't see her.  Love to all three, Lil.  How do you like the happy family?

I can see at least two hatpins securing the hat worn by the lady on the right.
