Recently purchased, an old album page with eight albumen prints of Cambridge related cartoons. One cartoon is dated 1875, another 1877. These appear to be photographic prints of cartoons which would have sold as souvenirs of Cambridge for students or visitors, in much the same was as postcards were to be sold in later years. But who was the photographer producing these albumen prints, and who was Dod, the cartoonist whose name appears on four of these? The name J.P.Soule (or similar) is on another and three have no artist’s name.
