Old Photographs of Liverpool Parks.

Hi,
Ihave seen some wonderful Victorian/Edwardian photographs of Liverpool parks over the years,but cannot access them on the Web.One i am obsessed with aquiring is of a Victorian Lady walking alongside the Allerton Oak dressed in a long ornate period costume,i seem to remember she has a tiny umbrella up(perhaps)Anyway it was on a wall in frame in a Pub in Woolton Village about 20 years ago.Also the old Postcards to be seen on Ebay on this subject are amazing,with Calderstones,Sefton Park and Stanley Park looking fantastic.What a pity they are not as they were then.Can anyone suggest where to find these pictures,thank's.

Just picked up 3 books of Paul Bolger series, " Postcard Photographers of Liverpool and District 1900 to 1930" some brilliant pics in them. First published in 2008 at £10;99 each but now £4;99 in the book clearance shop in St Johns.

Sounds like a book I might like. Thanks for the tip, Joe.

Looking for the name of the Public House at 340 Great Howard Street early 1900s

I am researching my family history and would like to get a copy of A-Z & Directory of Liverpool Central by Paul Bolger, but it is out of print. Can anyone help please?

Failing that, if you do have a copy, would you be able to check an entry for me please? I am looking for the name of the Public House at 340 Great Howard Street on the corner of Blackstone Street.
