Keywords: Fred C Palmer Clanfield church.jpg Postcard of the Church of England parish church of St Stephen at Clanfield Oxfordshire England The photographer was Fred C Palmer of Tower Studio Herne Bay Kent ca 1905-16 and of 6 Cromwell Street Swindon ca 1920-36 He died in 1941 The postcard is postmarked 1930 ;Points of interest The graveyard contains new white headstones Editing This is an unedited scan of an historical print that has darkened with age but it would be inappropriate to adjust the brightness because detail would be lost in lighter or darker areas It is suggested that edits of this image be uploaded as separate files Border The remaining border of this image is important for researchers of this photographer Some photographers trimmed their images more than others and Palmer has a reputation for producing smaller postcards than other early 20th century UK photographers He took his own photos developed them in-house onto postcard-backed photographic paper and trimmed them himself It is worth adding that during hand-developing the border is actively masked with equipment which both crops the picture and causes the white frame or border to appear on the paper This frame is part of the design and is one of the reasons why the quality of Palmer's work is so interesting and why there is an article and category for him on English Wiki Researchers need to see exactly where the edge of the postcard is Thank you for taking the time to read this Scan of original postcard in my possession 1930 Fred C Palmer died 1941 out of copyright PD-art-70 St Stephen's Church Clanfield Churchyards in Oxfordshire Clanfield Fred C Palmer of Swindon Postcards of Oxfordshire
