EZRA GREAVES (late of the firm of E Gregson & Co) begs to inform his friends and the public generally, that he has OPENED A PHOTOGRAPHIC ESTABLISHMENT at HALL END, Halifax (over the Sale Rooms of Messrs Davis and Shoesmith, Auctioneers : where he hopes by strict personal attention to business to merit a share of public patronage and support.
The rooms are favourably situated for securing the best light, and no effort will be spared in making them the most complete and comfortable Photographic Rooms in this neighbourhood.E GREAVES can with confidence refer to the work executed by the firm with which he has lately been in partnership (and for three years almost sole operator in Halifax) and especially to the pictures executed by himself at Blackpool during the past season. Having secured first-class apparatus and fittings, from the best makers, he feels assured that he will be able to give every satisfaction to those who may favour him with their commands.
Carte, Cabinet, Enlargements, Machine, Landscape, and every class of Photography executed in the best style and on the most reasonable terms.
