A good question: I believe this would have been a postcard sent by one of many exchange clubs that thrived during the 'Golden Age' - these would have been established through magazines and clubs set up to specifically to cater for the collector in those early days of Postcards - and international to...

I am seeking quality postcards depicting the London Docks and the River Thames - from the Upper Pool (City of London) downriver to the Nore and the Thames Estuary - landward side as well if it relates please; Wharves, Warehouses, Transportation, Shops, Strikes, Adverts, Characters and People

- ultra rare, eh? - would be nice to see these if you can get them on-line - the value depends on their appeal to collectors of course - in this case it may appeal to Royalty collectors too - for a local dealer try the Potteries Postcard Society; they meet 4th Monday of each month at St Peters Metho...

- looks like you have covered a lot of options already - but here's details of the Southampton Postcard Club who may be able to assist:
contact: Dave Edwards: rdedwards2000@hotmail.com - they meet on the 4th Monday of each month at 7:30 pm at Friends Meeting House, 1a Ordnance Road, Southampton -

Unfortunately can't make this one Brian - really disappointed as this is one of the best to attend - best of luck on the day

did you know that the game of Darts dates back to the middle ages? - here's a quote from http://www.britainexpress.com/History/pastimes/darts.htm : In 1908 a pub owner named Anakin in Leeds, Yorkshire, was taken to court for permitting darts to be played in his establishment. He offered to prove tha...

Not sure - I have an account and don't use it much either, too many 'idiots' on there if you ask me with too much time on their hands - but all publicity is construed as good publicity as they (someone) sometimes say - enjoy!

I just wanted to let everyone know that there was a happy ending to this request for help! Thank you to eastlondonpostcard and especially his friend in New Zealand, Kevin Hannah, who went out of their way, to obtain the postcard I wanted so badly and send it to me in Canada. I am in the process of ...

Here's one I found recently that might interest you: http://www.churchpostcardviews.co.uk/GL/comminst_f.jpg and here's a scan of the back: http://www.churchpostcardviews.co.uk/GL/comminst_b.jpg I remember going there as a youngster and being amazed by all the exotic places that we in Britain had con...

Has anybody been able to have a look at the site? I've had a quick glance - yes, the concept is good + the intro works well: creating then/now views to display publicly - hmmm, not sure postcard collectors will take to it easily or readily with the amount of work involved. I know many cards in my o...

- not sure what the 'RPS series' is, but Bonzo cards are highly collected: originals are catalogued between £5/£8 each - condition is the key, of course to - hope it helps

They certainly seem exceptional to find like that and would appeal to Bamforth collectors and attract a premium on top of what are not very expensive postcards to collect. My guess is that they are printer proofs/trials/samples. Great find! Of course, Bamforth are more well known for their saucy com...

My how time flies! - yes, thankyou Delcampe - best wishes in return - what a great team!

Thanks

Judges of Hastings are still operating and so too are Francis Frith with their old books and prints - rule of thumb is to look up a publisher and check if they are still operating .......... hope it helps
