{OK} dss - Douglas Snapshots.

A small booklet containing a dozen black & white images of Douglas, Isle of Man, plus the front and back covers.
Measures 4 3/8" x 3 1/4" with images of 3 1/4" by 2 3/8" [or 11 x 8.3cm with images 82 by 60mm]

I can, tentatively, date these to between 1934 & 1940 as two images show "Mona's Queen" , that date is supported by what can be seen of clothing fashions and car designs.

I do wonder why there is no index supplied / printed onto the inner front / rear cover.
