History of Edinburgh

For those that love history discussion I am going to post some old prints, paintings, photographs, and film, which display historic events that have taken place in Edinburgh. I am going to upload the images one at a time, as I tried to upload a total of eight images previously, but I rather annoyingly timed out. So this OP will eventually have eight pictures, even if you can currently see less.

Please feel welcome to post your own as well. Reconstructions are fine.
