Description

The Oldham Photographic Society: A Victorian Era Story In 1867, a group of photographers from Oldham and District came together to form the Oldham Photographic Society. This meeting marked an exciting time in photography's early development, as it made portrait photography more accessible to people from all walks of life. The society's members were pioneers in their field, contributing to the creation of permanent photographic images that paved the way for professional and amateur photography. The book "A Victorian Society" brings together over 300 black and white photographs and illustrations, many of which are published here for the first time. It also explores the rise of Oldham as a major cotton spinning and textile engineering town during this period.
