A selection of old postcards.
Many of the captions have been copied directly from the postcards which sometimes contain language that may seen archaic and offensive.
Some cards are photographs (continuous tone) while others are screened (picture made up of lots of little dots). I have generally scanned all at resolutions high enough to reproduce all detail in the originals including the colour screens.
