Beschreibung

Oblong folio measuring 14" x 9.5". Brown suede over stiff paper boards. Contains 21 gelatin silver sepia toned photographs measuring between 5" x 3" and 5" x 3.5" without captions, and 146 real photograph postcards. A loss of the spine with modest chipping and some tears on the pages, thus good. A collection of photographs and postcards depicting scenes from various places in and around Great Britain including: Gloucestershire, London, Wales, Glendalough, Belfast, and more. Most of the postcards are real photograph post cards featuring vast landscapes and people. One of the post cards shows a large ornate building, "New City Hall, Belfast". Another shows crowds of people walking around on a busy street in London. Many of the postcards are from Valentine & Sons, a printing company that grew to be Scotland's leading manufacturer of picture postcards. Most of their postcards were real photograph cards numbered on the front in hand, which sometimes made the figures illegible. Some of the postcards have also been handpainted. The sepia photographs feature some people at a church, boats, and locations in a forest. An extensive collection of real photograph post cards and pictures circa 1920s.
