Mr John Wemyss, Mr Robert Clerk, and George Pratt
Description
A group of three men standing in a street. The man on the right with white hair and holding up a small bell is George Pratt, former Town Crier of Edinburgh. The man opposite him is holding a similar bell and leans on a walking stick. They are both taller and thinner than the man standing between them. The outline drawings of several men's heads are seen in profile on the white background behind the three figures.
