Re: G.E.Studdy "Bonzo" RPS Series

- 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

Re: Bamforth song cards

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...

Re: DOWNHAM MARKET postcards.

- best come to Woodbridge tomorrow if you can - there will be Postcard dealers with Norfolk and Suffolk postcards including, I'm sure, postcards of the type you require - it's at the Community Centre behind the swimming pool -

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

Re: Postcard took 27 years to be delivered

Wow! - that is unusual and a newsworthy item, indeed. I would say that it has a value above the Postcard itself if it is genuine - but, hard to put an exact price on it? There are collectors of 'oddities' like this in the stamp world as well who would snap it up, I'm sure.

Re: Hildesheimer Postcards

Welcome - well, these are not a well-known series as far as I know, I've certainly never seen or heard of this set before. The 5000 series of postcard sets were not started by Hildesheimer until 1904/05 - so your set will probably have been produced before then. Hope it helps, Steve

Re: Postcard Collecting Project

Well, I just like Old things and have always collected something or other. Postcards I enjoy in particular because you never know what is out there to find - unlike stamps, let's say, which are all listed and catalogued and known about - with no real surprises (I'll probably get beaten down for sayi...

Re: German postcards

Hello Di - it would be best to contact a Postcard Dealer near to where you live - they will be happy to advise you. Alternatively, visit a Postcard fair if you can - again most dealers will be happy to help if they are able to view them. A list of fairs and dealers can be found on the PTA website: h...

Re: Any New Zealand members who could help?

Good news - I am fortunate to have a contact in New Zealand who has been successful in acquiring the card on your behalf from the original seller - if you still want the postcard please PM me with your details and I can put you two in touch with each other if that's OK - best wishes
