Most
of the early early coloured street photographs in the website have been taken by myself.
I thank all those who have donated photographs and I know from your
e-mails that you are delighted to have the facility on the website to
display your photographs to the world.
The old school class photographs
have been wonderful and many have contacted me thanking me for this lifetime
honour, the gift of a timeless photograph on the web, which their
family, children, grandchildren and friends can enjoy.
Many of the others have come from a selection of books that I have read over the years and these
older photographs have been used to good effect to show a comparison
between then and now
Old Bridgeton by Eric Euson
Old Parkhead by Charles McDonald
A history of Bridgeton and Dalmarnock by
Gordon Adams
Oot the windae by David Reilly
The Virtual Mitchell Library
I am also very grateful to everyone who has
contributed with their memories, stories, songs, poems etc.on the now
famous GlescaPals messageboards especially
Mr.Ronnie McPhee who has
been a great contributor.
The GlescaPals Messageboard has been wonderfully served by my admin Nell & Norrie.
More recently I have added a GlescaPals Facebook group and my thanks to everyone who contributes.
Special mention also to my big pal Jas, who has been a source of great
encouragement and help.
