To Sell In or Not-In Albums
Posted: Thu Jan 23, 2014 10:06 am
I have inherited about 600 postcards, mainly from 1904-1916, but some from early 1920 to 1930s.
They are mainly landscapes/scenes, buildings, etc. of (but not exclusively) Northern England, but there is also a good miscellany of cartoon, film star and decorative/floral as well.
Most have correspondence on and are stamped/franked.
They came in 4 "loose fit" albums, from around about the same era.
My question is, are they better to be sold in the albums? Or are they better to be removed and sold as sets or groups?
They're all currently out of the albums, because I have been following the correspondence between 4 or 5 senders to just one person (the original collector), as part of genealogy research.
Many thanks, John
