Name: BARBER, William Charles b: 1859 Halesworth, Suffolk d:1929
Address: Victoria Street, Littleport.
Working Dates: c. 1914 -1920s
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: William was a printer and also a publisher of real photo postcards. William and his family were in Clerkenwell London when their three eldest children were born. By 1898 the family (William, wife Bessie, four daughters and a son) were in Littleport.

Name:    BARKER, John H. b. d.
Address: Cambridge
Working Dates:  c. 1893-1901 in Cambridge
Subjects, styles, advertising, other relevant information: In 1986 the Cambridgeshire Collection was allowed to copy a series of photographs, many taken in Cambridge between 1893 and 1898, mainly of street works and electricity generating equipment related to the Cambridge Electric Supply Co. The album was owned by a reader from Bedford. The series of 3 x 4in albumen prints in the album were of a good professional standard in terms of composition and exposure. The album had been put together by John H.Barker, who presumably was also the photographer concerned. The album was headed "John H Barker, Miller Prize, 1890-91 part 2". The album included a certificate to Barker from the Institute of Civil Engineers, congratulating him on the 50th anniversary of his election to that body on 6 December 1892 (certificate dated 6 Dec 1942). Thankfully 35mm copy negatives of all the photographs in the album are now preserved in the Cambridgeshire Collection. Sadly it would appear that this album has since changed hands and has been split and individual prints have been separated and sold on Ebay. Four examples from the author's collection are below. The Cambridge Daily News Fri 22 Feb 1901 p3 reported on a dinner for employees of the Cambridge Electric Supply Co on the occasion of the Company's secretary and engineer, John H Barker AMICE, MIEE, leaving Cambridge to take up an appointment at the Hon C.A.Parsons' Heaton Engineering Works in Newcastle upon Tyne.

He was the photographer to the expedition, travelling 30,000 miles by Land Rover through 21 countries. Antony specialised in portraiture and also acted as a stringer for national newspapers. His most famous image, taken in 1953, is of the co-discoverers of the structure of DNA, James Watson and Francis Crick with their DNA double-helix model. In 1958 Antony changed career direction, moving into furniture design and manufacture. Antony was awarded the MBE in 2003 for services to heritage and to the community in Codford, Wiltshire. The National Portrait Gallery held an exhibition of Cambridge Portraits by Barrington-Brown in 2012, after his death in a car crash. The NPG has 228 of Barrington-Brown's portraits from the period 1951-1958. Below are two examples of Antony's day to day work, 6 in x 4 in graduation portraits, dated June 1952, with "AC Barrington-Brown" backstamp on the reverse. These were taken outside the Old Schools building after a graduation ceremony in the Senate House on 18 June 1952, the subjects are unknown (author's collection). The Cambridgeshire Collection holds two boxes of negatives and contact prints by Barrington-Brown showing Cambridge in the 1950s. The images are listed in a handlist, but are not currently included in the Collection's main illustrations card index. Some have been reproduced in Varsity magazine.
