Trinidad pictures, 1933 - 1971

 Series
Reference Code: GBR/0115/RCS/Y304Q/9/1
Scope and Contents

Photographs of which 84 are postcards, and one negative. Despite the label 'Trinidad pictures', some of these images appear to be of England. One has the caption 'Lay Brother's Entrance, Beaulieu Abbey,' but the rest are all uncaptioned, so it is difficult to identify location. In the main, they depict groups of people, scenes of agriculture and some general landscape views.
