I collect items relating to Hospital and Nursing History including badges,ephemera and postcards.I am always looking for hospital views to add to my collections and am particularly interested in Cottage hospitals,Isolation hospitals,Aerial views,
Nursing images showing hospital badges or prize giving ceremonies as well as Operating theatres and medical equipment.
I am also specifically looking for any of the following; Gorleston Cottage Hospital,Hellesdon Norwich,West Norwich Hospital,Southampton Childrens Hospital,Southwold Hospital,Aldeburgh Hospital,Great Yarmouth Naval Hospital,Northgate Hospital Yarmouth,Peterborough Memorial Hospital,etc.
For an idea of the sort of cards I collect check out; http://hospitalshistory.multiply.com/photos

Sorry for the late reply but I have only just joined this site. I have one postcard that may be of interest but is from the USA. Los Angeles County General Hospital, California. It is in pretty good condition with a message on the back. However, the stamp has been removed. I have no idea of the date but, from the rest I have received, would assume it is 1930's. Are you interested in hospitals in the USA? Caroline
