Notes

There may have been more slides in this set, but no catalogue references have yet been found.

The slide titles, where known, are taken from printed labels on the top edges of the slides, and are truncated as shown here. Some are also taken from a handwritten list in a private collection (source unknown).

Wing is identified as the maker from the style of the images and labels, and the use of Chatteris church as a background in Slide 2.

The latest possible date is on the basis that Chatteris appears in one of the slides, and by 1911 Wing was no longer based there.
