- Researching an article on Ealing photographers. Found an image from my collection by Alfred Raines – someone I had never encountered #
- And I've just found my first Hanwell photo studio – T Bolland, right near where I live (sadly excited, think I may become a train spotter!) #
- @Historypin I am trying to get this bloke to upload his street photography to the site – wouldn't they be great?! http://t.co/mGPIGyvG #
- @EastMarple1 actually, collecting numbers would be soooo useful for dating images. But I'd leave the work to others, like you? 😉 in reply to EastMarple1 #

- @2nerdyhistgirls I thought twins too. Definitely sisters. Thanks for all the RTs, they're a nice batch, aren't they? http://t.co/1d0IFURp in reply to 2nerdyhistgirls #
- I'd not spotted these nice, illustrated, fashion-based photo dating guides from @V_and_A before. http://t.co/gBK2DMOk #
- @DrFrond a sneaky fern frond makes an appearance in this one! http://t.co/U2dOL33x #
- What a classic mid/late 1890s dress with leg-of-mutton sleeves. Lovely setting and pose too – http://t.co/U2dOL33x #
- Perfect example of an earlier image (c. 1860, poss. ambrotype) copied onto a later format (early 1900s cab. card) – http://t.co/L94lAFlQ #
- @JayneShrimpton Hi Jayne, I think you'll like this – do you think original image may even be 1850s? http://t.co/L94lAFlQ #
- @margotnote it's definitely a printed book, so quite possibly a bible. More about the story behind this image – http://t.co/lp8Ilpn5 in reply to margotnote #
- Have just added a couple of local (Hanwell, London) public domain Wikipedia images to @Historypin http://t.co/5COOemEm #
- Lovely early portrait of a rather fulsome lady, probably c. 1860 http://t.co/03IJNASz #
- Funny how you can use a word and then feel the need to check you've used it correctly: "Fulsome" (as in fulsome figure) http://t.co/J8zHJngi #
- Is T Bolland the only early photo studio to have existed in Hanwell? Found two images http://t.co/aSISt7zX & http://t.co/4OQoJU9K #

- ooooh, 998 followers. Not sure why, but I'll feel like I've achieved something if I reach 1,000 in <1 year (I joined late Jan 2011 I think) #
- Fascinating. Not often you get such insights into a photographer's life. Via @jimmyleiderman http://t.co/SZDGTxf5 #
- Thanks to @bue_si and @CassiniMaps for getting me to 1,000 followers! If you know anyone who likes vintage photos do spread the word #
- As I reach 1,000 followers I'd love your feedback. What do/don't you like? What do you want more of? Requests/challenges always welcome! #
- @EYorksPud you're right, 'downstairs' shots pre WW1 huge challenge! This “Fireplace, Lacock Vicarage Kitchen” is nice http://t.co/JHW2VNsh in reply to EYorksPud #

- @EYorksPud nice pic, but Manheim not London?! in reply to EYorksPud #
- @JayneShrimpton thanks for yet more dating advice "prob c.1860-63. Early 60s photos may retain 3/4 length 1850s pose" http://t.co/L94lAFlQ in reply to JayneShrimpton #

- @EYorksPud ah, where in London? I love to visit Portabello Road browsing for old pics. Mostly rubbish, but you do get some gems each time in reply to EYorksPud #

- I was hunting in my desk for my anaglyph 3D glasses and rediscovered this early (2D) railway album. So wonderful http://t.co/ixcRLBs2 #
