You'll mean Raphael TUCK & Sons.

Should find plenty on a websearch. .. but probably the most prolific postcard publishers of the early part of the twentieth century. Produced a huge variety of material, mostly excellent production quality.

I don't recall seeing any panoramic cards produced by them, but if yours is of Brighton it's probably not worth too much.

thanks for that
Tuck!
cheers, just interested as the card looks in such good condition i thought it may have been a reprint or something
