This leading photographic business in [[Ceylon]] was founded in [[Colombo]] in 1890 by A W Plate and still exists today.

It was the first on the island to embrace Postcard Publishing and this became a large part of its business in the late 1890s and early 1900s - when postcard publishing was at its most popular.
