S.L. Cassar. Salvatore Lorenzo Cassar, born in Vittorosa, was a prolific and high-quality photographer whose last and longest-standing studio was almost opposite St John’s Co-Cathedral in Valletta. After he died in 1928, his business was carried on in his firm’s name by others.

P.O. Dabbs. Nothing is known about this photographer, except that some of Adinolfi’s images credit him as the photographer.

Richard Ellis was one of the earliest and most prestigious photographic firms, established in 1860. When the founder died in 1924, his son John carried on the business. Their activity covered the whole range of image-making, from portraiture to landscape, from events to industrial recording.

The Grand Studio, owned first by J.Mallia and later by F. Tabone was based since late Victorian times, in Kingsway, Valletta. Its activities included portraiture and current events.

Hammet’s Photo Studio, was active in the inter-war years and operated from premises in Kingsway, Valletta.

J. Tabone. Nothing is so far known of this photographer. He may have worked for The Grand Studio.
