Hi, can anyone confirm the year Stoddart & Co started the Ja Ja series postcards? I thought they were established in 1905 but i have a card dating 1904. Thanks

I managed to find one on eBay posted in 1904, so it seems they actually were available then:

Although the trade mark "Ja Ja" wasn't finally registered until 26th July 1905 (source: Picture Postcards & Their Publishers" by Tony Byatt - 1978)
