This chap, Mr Cornwall is wearing what we’d love to for this New Years Eve party! Very smart in 1864. Beckett and Willis had a short lived partnership between 1863 and 1866, both continuing their business in Scarborough after the partnership was dissolved.

Oliver Sarony is probably the best known of all of the Scarborough photographers. His studio on South Cliff was at one time the largest in Europe. This carbon print cabinet card with an unknown sitter illustrates why he was so well known.
