Individual Scottish Schools: Airdrie Private School (early-1920s)


Figure 1.-- This is a Scottish school class, we think in the 1920s. We believe it was in Airdrie, a small town in North Lanarkshire, near Glasgow. The town ppears to have originated as a medieval monastary. The nodrn town grew with weaving and mining. We have a cabinet card portrait from one of the primary schools, we think dating to the early-1920s. The boys wear a variety of shirts and suits, many with ties, We see several Eton collars. All the boys wear hort pants and knee socks. The girls wear dress as well as blouses and skirts. We see a fe pinafores. several girls have white hairbows. They are posed in front of their stone work school. The studio was MacDonald in Airdrie.
