Antique Leeds History Scrapbook / Ephemera Album
Circa 1907–1924
A fascinating and substantial early 20th-century scrapbook containing original newspaper clippings and photographic illustrations documenting Old Leeds, its streets, landmarks, civic life, and artistic culture.
The album includes:
Edwardian and early interwar Leeds newspaper cuttings
Illustrated features titled “Pictures of Old Leeds” and “Old Leeds Landmarks”
Coverage of Post Office / G.P.O. Art Club exhibitions
Named Leeds artist John H. Scott, with exhibition references
Period photographs of streets, buildings, trades, and daily life
Original contemporary assembly, not a later compilation
The album appears to have been compiled at the time, likely by a local resident with a strong interest in Leeds history and the arts, resulting in a cohesive and evocative visual record of the city during the Edwardian and early interwar years.
Condition:
Worn and fragile in places, with age-related
... wear to the binding and pages, commensurate with age. This wear is consistent with genuine use and enhances its authenticity as a working historical archive. Please see photographs for overall condition.
A scarce and atmospheric piece of Leeds social and visual history, ideal for collectors of local history, ephemera, genealogy, or British art history.
Size of album approx. 27 cm x 32 cm x 3 cm
