Family Album

FCO Shaw (Th 1903) was a photographer whose album has been posted on Flikr. There are some splendid pictures of Haileybury both from 1905 when he was a boy but also from the 1930s. According to the Register, during the Great War Shaw served with the Honourable Artillery Company and with the RAF, before becoming a wholesale drug supplier.

There are pictures of the OTC at Summer camp in Aldershot in 1933, and a splendid shot across Terrace towards the Bradby showing the water tower. There is a picture of Shaw himself taken in 1912 in Buenos Aires here and here.

This is not from the Shaw Album, but gives a flavour of the period.

There is a picture of a very well scrubbed 'prep school boy' taken in about 1928, which is thought to be of FOJ (John) Shaw (H 1931), FCO's son, who became a doctor and a Lt Colonel in the RAMC.

Flikr does not allow one to download other people's photographs, so do follow the links.

These are pictures from the same period to give a flavour.
