Gertrude Elliott
Gertrude Elliott (1874 – 1952) shown as Stasia in Jerome K. Jerome’s “The Passing of the Third Floor Back” (1908).
The maid’s uniform is the traditional style that most people associate with a maid of the Victorian era.
This image of Miss Elliott looks very much like “Emma” in Kaoru Mori’s historical romance later becoming an Anime television series “Emma – A Victorian Romance”.
About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
