Date of photos

[hmcullum]

Hello

I have two particular photographs in my collection that I do not yet have names for. It may be a start if I can put some rough dates on them and then look in my close family tree to see if there are any likely candidates. I would welcome any suggestions for dates or other information that can be gleaned from these pictures.

Thanks
