Taney and Company

George B. Taney had established his photography business in Norwich by at least 1875. By 1877 he was describing it at Taney and Co. It is unknown when and how often they operated from from Foreshore Road in Scarborough, it is possible that it was only for one season. However there were more than one design for the backs of the Carte de Visites so it maybe that they returned for an other year.
