Description: | Portrait of the Waterlooville photographer, taken with one of his large plate cameras. He set up in business in Waterlooville in 1901 and was very well thought of locally. With the coming of the Portsdown and Horndean Light Railway trams he started making and selling local view postcards to the hundreds of visitors to the area. It became so popular that he had to stop producing them himself and get them done abroad. This meant registering them for trading but there was already a Herbert Marshall trading, so he registered as Charles Herbert Taylor Marshall (or C.H.T. Marshall). He was actually known by friends and family as Herbert Marshall, which is why he can be found listed under various Christian names or initials. Mr Marshall died in 1958 and his collection of many hundreds of negatives were donated to Hampshire County Museum service by his daughter Alison when she retired. It is known as "The Marshall Collection" in honour of the work of a man who has left us a pictorial insight into the history of the Waterlooville district.
