Re: Help needed 21 thousand postcards of uk castles

Wow! That must be some collection! Selling at an specialised auction house would be one route to sell, but there are fees involved.

Re: Davidson's Real Photographic Series

I am in possession of four postcards relating to Culloden Moor and wondered if there was any value to them and/or if someone might be interested. Many thanks, Bob. Hello Bob - well, these are quite common. Here's a Davidson's one I see for sale on eBid for example: https://www.ebid.net/uk/for-sale/...

From your description, they appear to be Davidson's series' of song cards which they produced in large numbers alongside Bamforth, a similar publisher of Post Cards from c.1902 onward. They would have been in sets of three...
