Looks like late 1940s, early 50s.

Maybe they have come out of a old sideboard drawer and a house clearance that Robinsons was getting ready to send overseas.

So they could have come from anywhere in the country.

The man I think is a very young Arthur Higson,who was the technical officer in charge at Leigh telephone exchange on Chapel St in the 1970's.
He lived on Schofield lane at atherton near the Mason's Arms.
