Summary

Digital photograph of a studio portrait of Joseph Solomon and Mary Phillips on their wedding day in Richmond, 1886. Frisby and Mason, were not listed in Bridge Road Richmond until 1887; however, the Sands & McDougall Directory was not published until December each year for the following year so it is possible the photo could have been taken in 1886.
