He was related to the artist who designed the 'His Masters Voice' image on the HMV record and there was a rumor that the image was conceived in the studio which was just above what is now forbidden planet. Unfortunately, I'm not sure when the studio closed down or what happened to the archive from Barraud so I can't tell you about the actual photo. Good luck with your search Hi Joann

BARRAUD 92 Bold St Liverpool. It also identified the photo as NO. 1776A. I guess for reprints. I have been trying to identify this person and time frame when photo was taken, but no one is alive to help me. Could you posibly date this photo by the information stated on the back of the photo? My ancestors' family name residing in Liverpool was KOPER. They originally came from Germany and were in the shipping industry. All other photos of other people in the album were taken in Bremen Germany. Very few of the photos are identified. Any information that you could supply would be greatly appreciated.
