About MeThis visitors book accompanies a pair of clippings books. It was started in 1942 when Powis House was first opened as a Community Centre. It was the first such Centre in Aberdeen and probably in Scotland.Visitors are from all over Great Britain and internationally, including one entry in an East Asian script.
As part of the community centre's 70th anniversary celebrations, Prince Edward visited the centre and added his signature to the book.
Frederick R. Whiting
Possibly 1820s - 1830s
