The staff of the Orkney Herald in the 1890s. Seated at the left end of the middle row is my great-grandfather James Flett, foreman printer, and the bearded man in the centre is T. Gibson, pressman. A copy of this photo appeared in the Herald's centenary supplement of 19 April 1960, but with no names and incorrectly dated as the 1870s. There was also a photo from maybe ten years or so later with all names given, but the newsprint makes it hard to see who appears in both photos.
