Some of Manias' Work in Hanna

This collection includes photographs by M. G. Manias. The images provide an important opportunity to view the clothing, hairs styles and photograph mannerisms found in Hanna at the time. It is thought that many of these images were originally printed as post cards - presumably intended for family and friends around the world.
