Old postcard found

Post by Declan hehir »

We moved in to old house and found over 300 cards dating from1902 to 1912 'the golden age'. The cards are in good nick and very varied, from the regular one's to hospital wards, military photos, cat colour drawings, some few irish, from European city & sites, south America. As I say ver varied would like to get more information

Could be anything from a load of common cards to some common cards with a few desirable items. The hospital ward ones may be interesting, if the actual hospital is evident. Best find a local postcard dealer or take them around the stands at a postcard fair near you.

If the hospitals are named, the cards will interest collectors of the locality in question.
