    I've tried to enlarge the photographer's name.

    Seems it is Canadian?

    Do you have a directory of Photographers that you can search that may tell you the time frame the photo was taken in or at least where it was taken?

    On the back it reads

    Uncle Dave 1975

    The bottom inscription reads

    J W Trussler
    Goderich
    Canada

    Goderich is in Ontario

    Wendy,
    Check out this site and compare to the hat badge in your photo, it might help identify his regiment and then narrow things down from there.

    It looks like it could be from WW1 Canadian Expeditionary Force.

    I can't a good look at the badge even with a magnifying glass or by blowing it up.
    Would hate to pull the frame apart to see if there is actually any writing on the back of the photo itself. In there pretty solid.

    You could be correct though the shape is similiar. Thanks.

    Any place we could compare uniforms with the data you provided??

    Hi Gary, can't enlarge it much more without losing quality.

    I would agree it is Canadian by the Maple Leaf badges. A great job Hugh in enlarging it.
