About MeCarte de visite of the rood screen inside Glasgow Cathedral; the screen separates the nave from the chancel and was a crucial part in the Roman Catholic mass, ultimately separating the laity from the clergy at the raising of the host. On the reverse at the top right corner is a note in pencil: '50'
