LATEST ADDITIONS
Jun 1st - Orange have 'lost' my Broadband connection and I've spent the last 10 days
waiting for them to reconnect it. Apparently they were updating the speed
(I didn't ask them to) and it went wrong. I'm trying to add over 100 Kent cards
but its abysmally slow without Broadband. Please bear with me.
June 3rd - Page of Darlington added (accessible through the Durham page)
June 4th - Page of Banbury added (accessible through the Oxfordshire page). Still no
Broadband.
June 13th - Broadband back - Orange & BT had contrived to disconnect me - probably
Orange's fault, but I'm reconnected at 2 Mb so I should be quicker now. Rest
of Kent added - about 100 cards
June 26th - started to add some more Devon
June 30th - page of Hastings added (accessible through Sussex page)
July 1st - pages of Brighton and Eastbourne added
Please note that this site is mainly for pre-1960 cards. I also have 10,000 post 1960 cards - please mention whether you want moderns when asking for your area.
At present, this website will provide a set of 'Sales Pages with pictures' to supplement my original website at www.sjones41.freeserve.co.uk (which will continue to exist in its present form for now - containing lists of numbered topo art cards by, for example, Tucks, Salmon & Valentines and News from Up North). All postcards displayed here are for sale unless specified to the right of the image, but please contact us first to check availability.
This site will grow and change rapidly so please keep looking.
This (2400 cards) represents only 5% of my stock
I aim to eventually get 10,000 - 15,000 images on display. If you can't see what you're looking for, please e-mail me - they are not all here by a long way. You can either e-mail me via the Contact Us page or at sjones@sjones41.freeserve.co.uk
I live in Lancashire, England.
I can accept payment for any cards by Paypal or by UK cheque (please do not send cash - it gets 'lost' in the post).
For postal details and charges please refer to the Contact Us page.
Please buy with confidence - if you're unhappy and think the card has faults not described then I do offer a full refund.
The links on the left relate to each County page. As the county boundaries keep changing its difficult to locate cards where everyone can find them. The Bartholomews I use is 15 years old so it doesn't include Counties such as Hunts, Rutland etc, but does include Avon, Cleveland, Tyne & Wear, West Midlands. I have included these - but not Humberside, which no one seemed to like.
The counties will eventually be broken down into Towns/areas (as Bedfordshire, Lancs & Yorks already are).
On each page are a set of images. For each image I have shown:
The exact caption
RP = real photo types, others are printed
The Publisher - where known
Dates are dates of postal usage (when used) or a reasoned estimate
The Condition - all faults described
Price
The images are deliberately low resolution for two reasons:
a) to be able to fit more on the site
b) to prevent image theft
WRITING A LOCAL HISTORY BOOK?
I can supply high quality images of all these cards - and a lot more - at only 20% of the cost of the card. Please ask for details
