| Ernest Collins Bandey, son of Josiah and Mary, was born in 1889, and he worked in the shoetrade. 'Ern' was also an amateur photographer.
This is a mock up ready for creating a postcard for Xmas 1918. Entitled 'Peeps at Home', so perhaps he was producing it for families to send out to the soldiers? But with the war over in November 1918, it was probably never published, as we have not come across a copy, just this mock-up.
Ernest lived near the Mission Church, in Brookfield Road off Wellingborough Road. Other postcards he produced were of the dedication of the War Shrine, and the Mission church lads brigade.
