Description: Two paper folding envelopes for holding film and/or developed prints - one is Kodak and one is from Wallace Heaton Ltd., a developing studio in London England. Both wallets fold open to show two open-sided pouches where either films or prints could be slotted and have advertising for other services/products printed on them. The Kodak wallet is predominantly white and blue, has a small slip of paper that appears to have “13/5/30 [?] Winton” and several numbers written on it in pencil, several numbers written in pencil on the left-hand side inside, and “Scotland / Negatives of Pete’s Scotland” written in black ink by Catharine Whyte on the front cover. The Wallace Heaton wallet is predominantly grey and black with a picture of two women looking at a photo album on the front cover, a slip of paper that appears to be a receipt for the Browns Hotel made out to “Nice Esq” tucking inside, “Scotland / Nice Esq / egative Scotland 1930” written in different hands on the back [everything except “Nice Esq” written by Catharine Whyte].
