If you’re off to Paris will it be oysters or caviar? maybe both, why not! #postcard

I know we’ve seen it before but it was right behind my hotel in Buxton so I’m having it! #PostboxSaturday

Just prepping my Friday #postcard listings, how about some gentle WW1 humour from Fred Spurgin or maybe the romance of Croydon?

Some tempting items there!

A quick reminder: Tomorrow’s (Saturday) #postcard fairs are at #Cardiff #Ryde #Shoreham and #Sittingbourne ❤️ #postcard s

Following on from yesterday’s dressing up #postcard more social history with the ubiquitous hospital fundraising parade. No clues apart from Roberts the photographer and a pub selling London Stout

I’m not sure, but I know someone who might be able to recreate it Andrea 🦜+🦜 🌿 🌻

Well we’re installed in our lodgings ready to see the wonderful Leveret - ON TOUR APRIL AND OCTOBER 2024 in Buxton tonight. Now distracted by this lovely book.

What do we have here? Friends mucking about or a music hall act posing for the local photographer? #postcard

Fantastic, I’ve really learned a lot today and I think we’ve collectively done Reggie proud!

#Postcards AND stamps will be on sale at the #Sittingbourne Fair this Saturday. The venue is Carmel Hall, Ufton Lane (off West Street) Sittingbourne, ME10 1JB #Kent - It’s open 9:30-3:00 and admission is FREE (we kid you not!)

You really need smell-o-vision to appreciate the native bluebells at Marbury today

Today’s black cloud task, typical collateral damage when you buy a job lot. I’m ok on the postcards but what on earth do you with the rest? Dump them on another dealer seems to be the obvious solution. But then you start actually looking and maybe there’s something interesting….

We're struggling to date this great sketch from Florence Fremantle of a production of Romeo and Juliet. We think it's most likely from the late 1930s to the early 1940s, but we're not sure which theatre 'The Regent' was referring to! Any ideas?

He may be young but it looks like working life has already started for Reggie. He’s very smart in this photo so probably staged for the camera but can anyone identify what his job may have been? #postcard #socialhistory

Sadly it’s a bit knocked about but how about this for a lineup? #photograph #fashion

Must have had a steady hand!

Some good examples of the daily chatter on cards, the precursor of social media for the price of a stamp. My only challenge is to find a home for them, are there any Grimmette family members out there? 3/3
