P25-02 · Individual photograph
Undated; before 18 March 1938 on the album’s identification of Happy Angus.
Named in the typed album caption. Prior research identifies a likely Angus Hector MacDonald/Adelina MacFarlane match (Angus death: Nova Scotia record 283242). If that identification is correct, the sitting predates Angus's death on 18 March 1938. That is a conditional limit, not a date written on the photograph.
