Photographs

This collection comes from one of eight private photo albums belonging to Selwyn Roberts, who served as a Sergeant in the Cyprus Police Force between 1958 and 1960. It includes 208 images of locations throughout Scotland. Amongst these are also post cards, with correspondence, as well as pages from a publication by the National Trust for Scotland. The images that comprise the online collection were reproduced from the original black and white prints. The titles are based on physical inscriptions, where available, and are otherwise generated on the basis of identifying the people, places and events pictured. CVAR holds digital reproduction of the originals.
