help needed with postcard collection

[mr grissom]

i have a large collection of postcards which now belong to my mam,past on by my grandad who sadly past away 6 years ago at a grand age of 91.
he was a bit of a hoarder.with regards to books stamps and postcards.
now i dont have a clue to value or anything like that and have trounced the web looking for some sites,so i am here.
there are 5 folders of postcards and ive had a look at a few folders.i have no clue to value or rarety on such items if at all they are worth anything.
looking through the postcards some of the views on some are just fantastic.they seem to be from all over the world im unknown if any are written on the back without actually taking them out to look.they seem to be in a1 condition the folders are ok too.there are lots of just the standard affair ie: holiday ones.



me mam has decided that these would be better in the hands of a real collector some one in the know.

and as asked me to found out about them and sell them for her.they are of no use to her,she knows it is a sad thing to do being they belonged to her father,but its what he would have wanted.

its not about the money.just they would be in better hands other than her own.

so im here asking if anyone would be interested in this collection.

i can photo the albums in full if wanted but this would take some time to do.if each page needs photoing then no problem but as ive said will take some time.
there seems to be roughly 200 per folder so i would say nearly 1000 postcards.

there are some large ones and small ones and what look like to be some old black and white scottish ones.but as said there from all over the world mexico, africa,australia,europe,usa,not sure if theres any japanese/china asia area lots of them dont say anything on the front.

some are just stunning views.

i would put on ebay but im damned if id give any of the money to them.

shes happy for anyone to come along and look at these if so wanted.providing your willing to travel to leeds west yorkshire.

so if anyone would like to contact me then please do.at gazza@iddod.co.uk.

ill answer asap.but i wont search through for some one asking if i have such a card.

thank you

i will investigate the other folders to c what there is in there.and get back as t what views there are.

just a quick update while investigating the rest i found some more folders.another 3 full of them so theres 8 folders altogether.
seems to be lots of european ones ie: holland belgium portugal.theres also a folder of usa ones these are disney ones which im thinking i bought these about 10/15 years.
so ill probably keep these ones.
