REAL PHOTO CARDS by H.H. BAILY - POST YOURS HERE

#1 Post by Ross Ewington » Thu Mar 10, 2011 4:24 pm

I think it's worth opening a topic to record the real photo postcards of H.H. Baily (son of
Hobart photographer .... H.H. Baily!!)

[attachment=1]lovett 1.jpg[/attachment]
This card with a view of the township of Lovett (name changed to Cygnet in 1915) is interesting
in that it is inscribed indicating perhaps that the photographer was situated in fairly nearby Huonville
.
[attachment=0]lovett 2.jpg[/attachment]
Question .......did Baily ever operate a studio in Huonville albeit briefly? It would explain his extensive
production of Huon and Channel views.

1910 - view of the Sydney yacht "Culwulla III" on a slip in Hobart after competing in the Hobart Regatta.

Postally used to Gormanston thus the offset from a machine cancel on the view side.

A fine view by Baily of the "Convent, Franklin" - postally used from Franklin in 1907.

Interesting to note that the 'EMPIRE' photographic postcard stock had an illustrated
"With Best Wishes" printed on the verso.

2 photos of Clematis Hut, Mt Wellington, by Baily. Not sure which Baily ... since there were two ... How do we know which is which?
